Justice and Moral Rights

Off late people were running under shock and thrown into chaos on the sudden announcement of banning the Indian currency notes for ceasing the Black money and corruption. It was told that this movement was enlisted as a surgical Demonetization. But how do the country and other nation see this Ban? Majority of the Indians and other nations waved a positive signal in favour of the government.

It’s been said that the RBI revenue has significantly increased to 33,000 crores in a week time. And also it would help prevent the stalled money from drug dealers, landlords, exorbitant interest lenders and terrorist. Expert opinions are studied, analysed and implemented according to the reporters, however also some sources say that there is an inefficient back out plan imposed and people had to run back to their old life style.

I was wondering how difficult it became now for the people to get back to old life style after being used to the technological world survival. There were days were people had to wait in the queue system to withdraw money from banks and all the expenditure was done through cash system and less of electronic transaction. After getting adapting to the 21^st century technological lifestyle, people find it difficult to go back to old pattern of living.It would be always difficult to earn the good name back of all what you have earned and lost it, likewise we find it hard to go back to old pattern of life style after living in a comfort zone of 24/7 ease.

Heb 6-4 says It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit,  who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age  and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance. It interprets as impossible, but there is nothing impossible with god says in Luke 1:37. To my understanding

 Whilst the aim of the government seems to be good to impasse the black money and corruption, it is inevitable to have a clean country unless we remove the root of the problem which is by accepting Jesus Christ as a personal saviour. There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death- prov14. If at all our moral rights and justice aren’t drawn from the source of absolutes it is impossible to have a clean nation and one good example is - the recent news says that the new currency of 2000 rupees was captured from the terrorist in Jammu and Kashmir during the fight between our soldiers and terrorists.

What causes poverty? Does corruption causes poverty or poverty causes corruption? Peter Eigen the chairman of the Transparency Index council said in 2002 that the country was lead to poverty because of corruptive politicians. As per 2014 corruption free country list which is ranked on the scale of 0(highly corrupt) -100(very clean). Our country is placed in 85th position.

It is highly impossible to lead the nation into justice and aim for the clean country when the politicians, leaders are above the law, they are the one who impose judgement, write the laws, amend it and does everything, and it is the dictatorship rule.

In-order to lead the nation to have a clean and morally good country they need to ask of wisdom from god as Solomon asked - Give me now wisdom and knowledge that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people that is so great?

It is only not the leaders but every citizen of this country to maintain integrity and pay taxes and not as evaders. There is no use of giving tithe regularly and evading taxes to the government for which god is not well pleased.

The Lord’s Coming is Near – Repent, Today is the day of salvation. Our God is always a god of second chance and so on.

Politician

An old superstition from the east encourages parents to predict their child’s future. Folk wisdom suggests that while the child is still a toddler, the parent should place on a table within the child’s reach, a bottle of wine, some money and a Bible. If the little one walks up to the table and picks up the bible, he will follow a spiritual vocation, possibly the priesthood. If he picks up the bottle of wine then hedonism is in the cards. If he picks up the money, he will probably become a business person or an entrepreneur.

The story is told of a new father, eager to plan for his son’s future who administered the test. He carefully positioned the three objects on the coffee table, watching eagerly what the little boy would do with them. The little guy walked up to the table, surveyed everything and slowly reached out his hand for the bible. Then he paused and picked up the money as well, placing it in the bible, finally he tucked the bible under one arm, took the bottle of wine in the other hand, and toddled off with all three, struggling to maintain his balance. The little boy’s grandfather stood over to the side, silently watching the whole scene unfold. When he saw the dismay on his own son’s face, he said, this is bad news. He is going to become a politician. We chuckle at a story like this because we tend to be quite skeptical about the men and women who inhabit the world of Politics. – (extracted from RZIM)

But what made our thinking to doubt about the politician, is political a Bad Job or God is not pleased with it? The present condition of our country is very bad as everywhere you see corruption, insecurity, injustice. The transparency indexing council chairman once said the country leads to poverty because of corrupt politician and they are above the law. The citizens of the country also play a trivial part of the corruption which enables the politician to enjoy lavish lifestyle while the rest are going to bed every day hungry. If at all a citizen come and raise their voice against the corrupt government he shall go disappear sooner or later.

Paul writes to Romans in 13^th chapter - Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. God perhaps allow certain things to happen in our life, society, country according to his purpose. It is in his ultimate will to make things let happen. My view is that a Christian can get involved in political activities or play a role to bring a reformation in society, but pragmatically it is going to be a tougher task to handle in the current society without compromise. The world says every good product comes with expensive price. If one wants to lead a life pleasing to god it takes complete surrender and sacrifice without expectations and ready to take the loss as profit. 

Silence OR Peace

I hear often people says that whenever they enter the religious place a church, temple or a mosque they feel peace in their hearts and if you get deep under for the real hunger of search for the truth, one’s heart would answer that it is not the peace, it is the silence which they observe and felt. I would always answer them it is not the peace they feel or witnessing, it is the absence of sound which stimulates their feelings and temperaments based on the environmental situation.

You do not need a great philosophical mind to comprehend and quench this hunger. It is really fascinating to know the honest answers only when there is a real hunger for truth. Empirically it is known that only very few has real hunger for truth, this society is looking for immediate remediation rather for a permanent solution which eventually pushes them to hypocritical life and depraved minds.

During a casual conversation with my colleague she said, visiting holy land Israel and Jesus Tomb caused goose bumps at the moment - all they’ve witnessed and experienced is the fading joy which won’t last longer, in fact the society is only after the fading joy and happiness. Peace is not something which fills in your heart through the world ecological system. One would not need to run here and there to find peace, as GOD is omnipresence; his presence is everywhere and can see through all hiding factors where human mind can think of.

He is the only person who can guarantee you peace amidst wherever you’re located and you do not need a building or a historical monuments or renowned religious land or building to pursue after or indulge in solitude. If at all you say a prayer and read through the scriptures you will experience the real peace and Joy and my dear friends you can choose to try this please.

 We fail to see the everlasting joy which Jesus has promised to us – NLT says "I am leaving you with a gift--peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid. Here it says world cannot give that peace and only he HIMSELF can give that and protect from fading.

Someone said PEACE IS NOT THE ABSENCE OF PROBLEM BUT IT IS THE PRESENCE OF GOD amidst troubles.  You will always get either one of the answer on every home you knock in this world that - they had come across problems or living with problems.

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.

If at all you need peace in this world amidst your problems please read the gospel Book of John and you will find the truth and real joy. The Holy Spirit, who is the comforter, comforts you and guide all through your life.

God Bless!

From Jalikatu to Postmodernism

Off late the Jalikattu protest sky rocketed the world attention to turn and see Tamilnadu spirit of oneness for the traditional sport Jalikattu and Peta Ban. Being a Tamilan I support Jalikattu, but why all of a sudden it turned out to be highly sensitive issue when actually it is supposed to be started at the time of Ban by the Supreme Court on 2014. Whilst the ban was uplifted by the state government it was overturned then by the Supreme Court. I truly admire the spirit of oneness for the traditional sport.

Having said it is also painful to see the death of truth in this country and people are pursuing after postmodernism world views. What is postmodernism? Post modernism states that there is no objective right or wrong, in fact, there is no objective standard outside ourselves for measuring anything.

Post-modernist say that each person looks within himself, creating his own explanation, for eg; the reader has the rights to interpret the author thoughts and rob the role of author and interpret in other way around or pretense.

But we do not need a post-modernist pilot. When the flight is flying at 10,000 altitude level as per the instrument reading, but if the pilot goes on saying that am gonna assume or believe the flight is flying at 9,000 altitude, we do not accept that when we are on the side of depending on the truth. Same goes well with the doctor if he didn’t provide the right medicine after verifying the symptoms and says I think this would heal. Everyone has the rights to reinvent the story.

Peta says we should not hurt animals, but the bible says in genesis 9:2,3 I have given all the animals and birds and every moving thing that is alive are given into your hands. God has given the authority to human beings to have dominion over them. Here who decides good and evil, right and wrong, if the Law(political) does, then who wrote it? Where is the absolute?

So it is one’s prerogative to decide and amend the law and rule the country and we are rightly into post modernistic society where we have jettisoned the Truth. You shall know the Truth and the truth shall set you free !

There is only one way which is the Jesus Christ and through him we get the moral standard and eternity. Unless our country is not built upon the moral standard it is impossible to have a clean India, corruption less India, republic country and free society. We are moving from what are rights to what are one’s rights!

We always knew Churchill as the one who hated Gandhi and India. But his words, while speaking against freedom for India are so prophetic..............Sir Winston Churchill...  His argument against granting India freedom...

"Power will go to the hands of rascals, rogues, freebooters; all Indian leaders will be of low calibre & men of straw. They will have sweet tongues & silly hearts. They will fight amongst themselves for power & India will be lost in political squabbles. A day would come when even air & water would be taxed in India."

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free – John 8:32

New Year Promises – Today is the Day of Salvation

I was taught and practiced by parents, neighborhood & people living around elsewhere in my country to make a good resolution every time the New Year dawns. What is so special in the New Year day and what makes that one day so auspicious and not the other days?  It is true that the Christians are the majority who used to celebrate the New Year with utmost importance whilst little other religion does. However it is celebrated widely across the country irrespective of the religion. But we Christian should always ask ourselves for a reason to be considered as the most auspicious day albeit we knew better that, the bible says Today is the day of salvation which explicitly says that every day in a year is the day of salvation. But we Christian must not merely consider what is auspicious but rather to look for expedient and edifying others through our deeds which would eventually glorify god.  It is not wrong to make resolutions and celebrate only on auspicious day, but most of the times we fail to stand on the resolution for longer period or probably it would grow weary as we face trials and tribulations.

So let’s ask god this day to lead us unto HIS will and obey at all times. No Matter whatever promises you choose or the pastor get it from the lord for his people to the congregation it is imperative to know that it always follows with a condition.  Therefore you shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. Deu 5:32 and circumcise the foreskin of your heart and be stiff necked no longer. Deut 10:16

For the gift and calling of the god is irrevocable. Rom 11-29. His Will, His Promises, His Love, His compassion… are not changeable. Though we remain unfaithful he is always faithful. So let’s have the same spirit running continually all through our life, as the eyes of the Lord is on us from the beginning of the year to the very end of the year – Deut 11:12.

I came all this way for a reason. Today is the day of salvation. Trust Jesus to save you, Then be sincere as God Knows a pretender (kirk Cameron)

Today is the Day of Salvation- Wishing a Blessed year ahead !
