WE NEED TO HAVE THE FIRST LOVE TOWARDS HIM !!

In Matthew 26 ; 6-8 says …When Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, a  woman came to Him, having an alabaster flask of ointment of great value, and she poured it on His head as He reclined at table.But  when  the disciples saw it, they were in dignant,  saying, Why this waste?.... and in Mark 14 ; 8 and 9 Jesus says ...She had done what she could ; She has annointed My Body beforehand for the Burial .... And truly i say to you wherever the Gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what this women has done shall also be told as a memorial of Her...  What do we understand form these verses .. We see that Mary had annointed Jesus with a costly Oil and the disiciples did not understand anything and just says why is she wasting the oil for just simply to annoint Jesus ..... But Jesus later says in Mark 14; 8 that She annointed Him beforehand for the burial .... here we see two things about Mary .. The first thing is that Mary had a revelation about the Jesus death and She knew that this may be the only time she would have to annoint Him before he dies but the disciple could not get this revelation about the Crucifiction . And the secondly it shows the Love of Mary towards Jesus . "She had done what she could".. It shows the Mary's love towards christ .. This simply does not simply says objectively ..but subjectively She poured out her heart to the Lord ....
                             We must be like Mary .. We know that the Lord  loves us ... and we should have a mutual love with the Lord..... We should pour out what ever we could ... this just doesnt say we should spend our money or anything , but we should pour our hearts to the Lord (Mark 12;30) ... We should waste ourselves upon him .. Nothing should be more precious than him .. Many people dont give any heed to these verses .... But here we see a mutual love ...

 Mark 14 ; 4b-5 says .. Why this waste of Ointment been made ?... For this Ointment could have been sold for over three hundred denarii and given to the poor ...  
                             We see that the people were commenting about this ointment ... Many people in this world to Waste is something which is given too much of importance than its necessary ... When once our eyes have been opened to the real worth of our Lord Jesus nothing is too good for Him .. The Lord loves to see us loving him in a reckless way .. beyond human affection ... This Gospel refers to the gospel of His Death , Burial and Ressuruction(1Cor 15 : 1-4) .. This Story of the Gospel is that Lord loves us and the story of Mary is that She loves the Lord ....
                              We Must love the Lord more than anything in the world .. when are growing in him we will surely have this revelation .. in Psalm 73 ; 25 says Whom do I have in heaven but you? And besides you there is nothing I desire on earth .... The psalmist was able to say this .. but are we able to say this .../.?? We must have this kind of love towards the ..When we grow in Him we will gain more of this revelation ..
                              Today many christians do more of the works for the charity than for Christ . Many christians replace christ for charity , .. but in Mark 14 : 7 says For you always have the poor with you, and  whenever you want, you can do good for them. But you do not always have me . The Lord Jesus will not allow concern for the poor for a replacement of himself .. He seems to be saying "Do not trouble this one who loves me . she had done a good work on me. If you want to take care of the poor, wait for another time and go to another place.. The poor are always with you. But this is the unique time for you to take Me as your replacement and to pour out everything on me" ......... Let the Lord show us this revelation ...
                             

Without christ life is meaning less ....

..... Some of the youngsters ,like me , may  want to become something in life, or you want to accomplish something .... but then what..... after that .... you may think its over .... then you may think of something else .... but then , think ....  .... when you come to this world , you are alone ... and when you go out of this world ... you are the same... people may standby you and watch you , and appriciate you .. but then there is an end  for  every beginning .... Everyone in this world live as the same ...... even the great people ... everybody has problems and are unhappy at a point of time ..... and everybody would have wondered why we live in this world .... have you ?? .... it is the biggest unanswered question in the whole universe ... do you know why you were created ... even if you were an atheist ... do you know the answer... if we ask this question to someone ... mostly the young people ... they most likely answer is the life is to enjoy the fullest ./,..,,. but still is the question about life is answered ?? ... what is life .,,.?? why am i created ?/.,.., we believe God created us .,,.,., but do you know why ??? ..... why are we living in this world .... is it just to accomplish something and then go away ... or ... is it to gain something from this world ...and then we leave everything in this world just like that and die ..... and no one can say when we would die ,.,... we may even die today or tomorrow ... but then what is life why is life ..,.... in a documentary movie which i have watched years back called  .. it says the story of a women who works in a restaurant ,, and she is 31 years old and she did not accomplish anything in this world , so she goes on to practice boxing , and she gets a trainer and she works very hard and wins most of the boxing matches and goes for the title game .. and in the title game she breaks her neck and she is paralysed for the rest of her life .. and then she is not even able to move any part of her body ... and she is given artificial ventilation(breathing ) .. and all she can do is watch the roof ....she doesnt have a family , or friends to look after her... but before many people were cheering for her and with her through out her boxing maches and chanted her name .. but while she is in her bed she doesnt have a clue why she was living .... after some days her leg was amputated because of skin ulcer ... and she is lying there all alone ... only her manager comes to visit her ofter .. she feels she is a pain for him and tries to commit sucide by biting her tongue and bleed to death ... .. from this  story we see that  ... nothing is permanent in this world .. everything will vanish away oneday .... no fame , no success , no money .. nothing will be there ... when you leave this world .... so now what is life ???..... why am i created ???... the answer is that .. God created us with a purpose .. His purpose was to contain him and to be filled with him.. but in the beginning of the bible we see that man became a sinner and by eating the tree of knowledge of good and evil ... that is why we are more prone to doing sin ... and what we dont like .... because we have the nature of our ancestors ... but God did not want that to happen , he wanted man to be like Him in life and nature , but not in God head ..... we were created in his image and likeness (for reference from the bible ,please see the below post) ... we were created like him .... so what are we ... and when we are saved by his life we say we are the children of god ... then what are we ???,.,.,. when christ was ressuructed we became his many brothers ... now... what are we ??? we are like him ,.,..., but because of man's fall , we were sinners and we became debtors to God our creator.,.,.,. and so God wanted to recover us from this situation .. so he sent his only son to this world .. so that he would repay for us in the site of God.... never get confused with Father , son and the spirit .... many people dont know why is it so ,, and yet they are one ...they are called the triune God .... they are three in one ... this is unexplorabe for human mind .. because this is very complicated and this is the God head .... this trinity we not only see in the new testament , but also in the old testament... so thats why it may be confusing ...In Genesis 1 - 26 .. God says ," let US make man in our image and according to our likeness" here the US refers to the triune God..... but we see the son comes in the new testament and also the spirit who comes after  the son ...1 cor 15 ;45 says .. The last adam(Christ) became the life giving spirit..... so this trinity is impossible for our human minds ........ so let me come back to the topic .... So God wants to recover us and infuse himself into us .... we were created with a human spirit to contain him ... man has three parts ... Body , Soul and the Spirit ....We know the body .... and the soul.... Soul is made up of three parts i.e. mind ,emotion and will ...... mind is what you think , understand ...etc...., emotions is about how you are are ... happy , sad , angry ... etc... and Will is with what you say Iam ... or Me ....what I want ... etc.... these we use it regularly ... but there is also another part called the Spirit ... Spirit is a part to contact God ... in spirit we have three parts called Conscience , Intution and Fellowship.... Conscience is the part which pokes you when you are about to do something wrong ... fellowship is the part to contact God ...... when man sinned , his whole being was filled with sin and his spirit became dead ... So Jesus Christ came into this world so that he would die for our sins and then he became the life giving spirit (as we saw earlier).... He became the life-giving spirit so as to come into us ... so if we need to recieve this spirit we dont have to do anything .. we dont have to become some priests or pope or pastor or any thing else ... we must just believe that he died and then call upon his name .... paul says in romans 10;13 - For whoever calls on the name of the lord shall be saved ..... So all we must do is call upon his name ... Calling upon is name is very simple and the most effective thing... just stay where you are and just say out loud "Lord jesus " and say it again and again and you will be saved and The triune God will come into your spirit ..... you will recieve his life .... Call on his name again and again, and you will find his divine presence in you .. he will come into your being and saturate your whole being ...... and transform you into himself by adding his divine elements into you ..... This is why you were created ... you were created to contain him and express him ..... and this is my testimony ...... 

A "MUST READ"

THE MYSTERYOF HUMAN LIFE
“BY REVELATION THE MYSTERY WAS MADE KNOWN TO ME.” [Note 1 - Ephesians 3:3]

1. THE PURPOSE OF MAN’S EXISTENCE
Have you ever asked yourself why you are living in this world and what the purpose of human life is? No matter what type of person you are or what your profession is, there are a few things which you, like most people, would agree with, that is:
Money cannot satisfy man,
Neither can education satisfy man,
Nor can pleasure satisfy man,
Nor can success satisfy man.

WHY?
Because you have not yet realized:

2. GOD’S PLAN
God has a plan. This plan has everything to do with man. In the Bible, this plan is called God’s economy [Note 2 - Or, dispensation (Ephesians 1:10), which in the original language is oikonomia, referring to God’s plan.]
God’s economy is just God’s entire plan for man. It explains the origin and destiny of man as well as the meaning of human existence.

HOW CAN YOU KNOW GOD’S ECONOMY?

3. THE FOUR KEYS
God has prepared four keys for you to unlock God’s economy. These four keys are recorded in the Bible. Each of these four keys is equally important and indispensable.
Please open your heart right now to quietly and carefully read through this booklet; you will then grasp these four keys, understand God’s economy, realize the purpose of man, and begin a satisfied human life.

THE FIRST KEY

GOD’S CREATION OF HUMAN EXISTENCE

1. MAN HAS GOD’S IMAGE
Please read the following verse:
“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness....”
Genesis 1:26a
God’s creation of man is different from His creation of all other things. He created man in His own image.
A glove is created according to the likeness of a hand with the purpose of containing the hand.
Likewise, man was created in the image of God with the purpose of containing God.

2. MAN IS A VESSEL
Now read the next verse:
God “should make known the riches of His glory upon vessels of mercy...even us.”
Romans 9:23-24
We are vessels of God.
God wants to be our content.
As bottles are made to contain water, we are made to contain God.
It is no wonder that knowledge, wealth, pleasure, and accomplishment can never satisfy you, for you were created to contain God!

3. THE PARTS OF MAN
Please continue by reading the next verse:
“May your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete.”
1 Thessalonians 5:23
Man is God’s vessel. The Bible divides this vessel into three parts—the spirit, the soul, and the body. See diagram below:
The BODY is simply the physical body, belonging to the physiological level, contacting the things of the material realm, and is the most superficial part.
The SOUL is the mental faculty, belonging to the psychological level, contacting the things of the mental realm, and is a deeper part.
The SPIRIT is the deepest part of man, belonging to the spiritual level, and contacts the things of God.
For problems of the body one may see a doctor.
For problems of the mind one may visit a psychiatrist.
Yet only God can solve the problems of the spirit.

4. GOD’S ECONOMY
God wants to enter into man’s spirit, to become his content and his satisfaction.
This is the purpose of human existence! You are not merely created to contain food in your stomach, or to contain knowledge in your mind, but you are created to contain God in your spirit.

THE SECOND KEY
MAN’S FALL UNLOCKING THE MYSTERY OF THE GOOD AND EVIL NATURES OF MAN

1. THE TWO NATURES OF MAN
Since man was made in the image of God, he possesses a good nature that matches God’s nature, with virtues such as truthfulness, goodness, loveliness, wisdom, kindness, and valor.
However, there is also an evil nature in man which wars against his good nature. The Chinese metaphysicists refer to this war as a battle between reason and lust. Throughout history, both in the East and West, those who understand human nature acknowledge the existence of this evil nature which the Bible calls:

2. SIN
Because sin is in man, he is unable to carry out his good intentions.
No one likes to be greedy, jealous, or murderous.
No one likes to be boastful, arrogant, or deceitful.
No one likes to be irritable, licentious, or lustful.
No one likes to murmur, complain, or curse.
Nevertheless, man cannot escape his evil nature. Please read the following verses:
“For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but to do the good is not.”
Romans 7:18
“But if what I do not will, this I do, it is no longer I that do it but sin that dwells in me.”
Romans 7:20
This is a portrait of man.

3. THE FALL OF MAN
Sin entered into man and caused him to fall. See diagram below:
(1) Sin caused man’s spirit to be deadened:
“And you, being dead in your offenses and sins.”
Ephesians 2:1
(2) Sin caused man’s mind to rebel:
“And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by evil works.”
Colossians 1:21
(3) Sin caused man’s body to sin:
“Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body to obey its lusts.”
Romans 6:12

The fallen man is like:
A damaged and untunable radio which cannot receive and play music, but rather meaningless noise.
He is also like:
A cup that has fallen into the gutter still having its original fine form but now covered with mud.

4. MAN CANNOT SAVE HIMSELF
Throughout history, man has tried every possible way to escape sin, but he has found that:
Good works cannot save him from sin.
Education cannot save him from sin.
Ethics cannot save him from sin.
Chanting cannot save him from sin.
Religion cannot save him from sin.
This picture of man simply depicts the battle between his good nature and his evil nature.

 THE THIRD KEY
CHRIST’S REDEMPTION UNLOCKING THE MYSTERY
OF THE LIFE AND DEATH OF THE GOD-MAN

1. WHO IS CHRIST?
Christ is the Savior sent from God to the world to solve the problems of human life.
He is the embodiment of the Triune God.
“For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.”
Colossians 2:9
He is also God incarnated:
“The Word was God...the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us...full of grace and reality.”
John 1:1, 14
Therefore, He is both the complete God and the perfect man. See the following diagram:
He is more than a good man!
He is more than a great man!
He is more than a moral man!
He is more than a holy man!
He is the God-man!

2. THE DEATH OF THE GOD-MAN
This God-man was nailed to the cross to accomplish the work of redemption. He died with three statuses:
(1) As the Lamb of God, He died to take away man’s sin.
“...the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.”
John 1:29
(2) As the brass serpent that had been lifted up, He died to crush the old serpent, Satan, and to deal with the serpent’s poison within man—his sinful nature.
“And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up.”
John 3:14
(3) As a grain of wheat, He died to release the divine life.
“...a grain of wheat...dies, it bears much fruit.”
John 12:24

NOW:
His death has taken away the sin which man has but should not have!
His death imparts into man the life which he needs but does not have!

THE FOURTH KEY GOD’S DISPENSING UNLOCKING THE MYSTERY OF FAITH IN CHRIST

1. THE TWO BECOMINGS OF CHRIST
God became flesh, born as a man called Jesus. Please read the following verse:
“The Word became flesh and tabernacled among us.”
John 1:14
The Lord became the Spirit called the life-giving Spirit by His resurrection from the dead. Read the following verse:
“The last Adam became a life-giving Spirit.”
1 Corinthians 15:45
Since this Spirit is the life-giving Spirit, He dispenses God with His life into His believers.
Hence, the Bible says:
“He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.”
1 John 5:12

2. REGENERATING MAN
In his first birth, man obtains a physical life.
When man receives God’s life through Christ, he experiences a second birth, which the Bible calls regeneration.
“God...has regenerated us...through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from among the dead.”
1 Peter 1:3
Jesus said, “Unless a man is born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
John 3:3
A pig cannot participate in the sheep’s kingdom and live a sheep’s life by education, improvement, or regulation; it must possess the life of a sheep.
Similarly, man cannot participate in God’s kingdom and live a divine life by education, improvement, or regulation; he must receive the life of God!

3. THE MEANING OF BEING A CHRISTIAN
A Christian is one who receives God’s dispensing. God first dispenses Himself into our spirit and then spreads from our spirit into our soul. Finally, He fills and saturates our spirit, soul, and body with Himself. The Bible calls this final stage glorification.
“And whom He predestinated, these He also called; and whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.”
Romans 8:30
Through this, we can be transformed and conformed to the image of Christ.
“Because whom He foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son.”
Romans 8:29
This is the purpose of human life!
This is the meaning of being a Christian!
This is what God has planned for you!

WHAT MUST YOU DO NOW?

Now that you have realized God’s plan, you should do four things:

1. TURN YOUR HEART TO GOD—REPENT
Repentance is not to be remorseful.
Repentance is neither to turn over a new leaf.
Repentance is to have a change in mind.
Previously you had your back towards God. Whether you were doing good or evil, you were turned away from God. Your mind was turned away from God. Now listen to what the Lord Jesus said:
“Repent, for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn near.”
Matt. 4:17

2. BELIEVE—RECEIVE
To believe is not to nod your head, nor to agree, nor merely to be appreciative.
If someone gives you a watch, it is not enough for you just to nod your head in agreement and admire the watch. You need to receive it. Believing is just receiving. Read the following verse:
“But as many as received Him, to them He gave authority to become children of God, to those who believe in His name.”
John 1:12

3. CONFESS—CALL
Being a Christian is an open matter. God requires that your heart believe and that your mouth confess.
If your heart does not believe, you cannot be saved.
If your mouth does not confess, neither can you be saved. But:
“...if you confess with your mouth, Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from among the dead, you shall be saved.”
Romans 10:9

4. BE BAPTIZED—TESTIFY
Baptism is a testimony before men. All believers should be baptized in order to be saved not only before God, but also before men.
The Lord Jesus said:
“He who believes and is baptized shall be saved, but he who does not believe shall be condemned.”
Mark 16:16
Through baptism, God transfers us from the kingdom of Satan into the kingdom of God. For this reason, the Lord Jesus said:
“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”
John 3:5
NOW PLEASE PRAY:
"Lord Jesus! I am a sinner. I need You. Come into my spirit. Take away my sin. Fill me that I may have the life of God. I receive You right now as my Savior and life. I give myself to You. I ask this in Your name, Amen!"
Now you are clear about the mystery of human life! May the Lord bless you and cause you to continue living in God’s plan!
