Short Exhortation # 4 — Useless Worship

-

Pre-Pentecosal days, God's children strive to seek the truth, to know Him, to love Him and to serve Him. Post-Pentecostal days, what do we have? A church without Christ, a church that would cater to our our own godless minds for the purpose of tailoring which seems good and right. Singing, dancing, talent shows, flashy backgrounds, a gospel filled with dead mans bones and haters of the truth. Not a single Christian willing to lay his life to Christ. A church without Christ is a church worth less than stick and stones, a church that is not worth sharing in exchange of our very own lives He has given to us. Religion takes place.

But..

14:12 NET There is a way that seems right to a person, but its end is the way that leads to death. 

Our LORD Jesus Christ was spat out of this world, was not treated fairly, was persecuted, hated and slain by the men He chose to die for and yet, majority of the Christian nations would rather cling into their empty beliefs, for the sake of salvation. A salvation without Christ.

True Christianity is something that is not hard to grasp. Understanding His will and what He chose for us. True Christianity is simple, loving Christ, seeking Him with all our hearts and Him being the very persona of our daily lives. 

At the very end of our very lives, going through the process of eternity, we would know that the LORD who is worth dying for and risking our very own lives is not enough to pair what He did for us. 

Seconds away from our deathbed, a believer nor non believer, we would realize that we pray for a glimmer of light to justify that our actions through our "good works" which is aligned with the LORD's will, yet we do not know our Creator and we chose not to know Him.

Every person who passed through a Christless eternity believes and prays. Yet no one to heed their call. Eitherway, His holiness is glorified through the acceptance of His word nor the rejection of His cross.

A LORD who gives us what we want. An earthly life that Has nothing to do with Him.

Sowing comes first, reaping comes last. Decisions  come first, regret comes last, but regretting for godless eternity holds forever.


Isa 55:6 KJV Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

A Grandmother's Grieving Heart

 Heavenly Father, Kayo po ang may hawak ng lahat. Mula sa kapanganakan namin at sa mga salita na sinasabi namin.  I went down to cook lugao this 2AM because I was not feeling well. Suddenly I heard footsteps — it was my lola.  I politely told her to taste my meal despite full of spices(siling labuyo) as a common courtesy with a caution that it was spicy since she was not a fan of those. She politely declined. The wee hours of the morning, I was dragged to her room — her heart aches, informed me of her struggles: my uncle who sleeps with an estranged and wed person who has kids but sleeps under our roof, and another uncle who left because "inaalila daw siya" and our kasambahay who babbles and spills lies to tailor her own disposition, she was left in tears.  Am I a bad person? — Lola muttered.. A quick jolt entered my mind who was a living example for our household.  Is mom a bad person? At this point she is trying her best to spew her merits to avoid the topic w...

The Calling

It was a sunny afternoon when a prayer has been granted by the LORD . Walking my way through and wanting to turn back filled with thoughts that this could be my last day on earth, by His grace, allowed this to happen. Another door was waiting for me. The place where the LORD has lead me to preach the gospel; the place where I saw someone holding a tarpaulin with a John 3:16 verse a few months back.  While proclaiming the gospel, it felt like the Holy Spirit was talking with my only contribution: nervous and fearful while constantly shaking.  The place was semi-barren but yet the parking lot behind me was constantly being filled in-and-out. There was one soul by the bus stop who had witnessed everything. May his soul be filled with the Holy Spirit.  Another prayer was granted when I prayed that the LORD would not lead me to hard testing and to deliver me from such people. On my way home I could feel the sun thinking that the LORD had   beamed a bright smile — from fe...

 LORD, I thank you for the provision. You never lack.  I am the one who steered away from you and I only went back to you when I needed you the most. I have been complaining for the physical pains I have experienced for the past months foolishly fulfilling my own desires and going through my way. The bigger cancer was ignored, the cancer in my spirit. Thank you for your mercy that I am still here typing this. Help me endure Father God.  Today, I had gone out with my friend in gaming, David P. We went out to UP oblation only to see that it was closed. We sat nearby an available bench, a bit isolated. He was downcast due to his recent breakup. I did not know how to to open up but the LORD knew. The gospel was given to one of the closest person I have been close with ever since we have met (04/07/2025). There were some questions that was answered that I MYSELF cannot even answer unless the power of the LORD intervened. Have mercy on this lost soul Father God.
