HOW THE FEAR OF SPEAKING THE TRUTH HAS RUINED SOCIETY

To some people, lying is a perfume they need to use every day

.

The ‘Truth’ is not a commodity sold at the shop; it’s just an act of not lying about something but giving an accurate account, yet only a few can afford it, and those who can afford it often find themselves in a very tight corner, not easy to free themselves.

In John chapter 8:32, Jesus said, “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” How often do we ponder or reason over Jesus’ Biblical quotes? Jesus knows that the truth exists, but people will never rely on or depend on it.

The reason our society is torn apart today because it’s in the hands of people under the influence of Satan, so the need to lie is necessary to please both Satan and the people they serve. And since many are not ready to be ‘ruled’ by the doctrine of the scriptures, they join Satan’s company.

Romans 6:23 reveals that: “For the wages of sin are death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” This means that death is inevitable because of our sinful nature, yet we need to live in the truth.

Speaking the truth at the moment is not only costly but deadly. Worldwide, many have been assassinated for speaking the truth about something heads of churches, leaders, and politicians wouldn’t like the public to know. Thus, instead of speaking the truth, many prefer to lie.

Jesus knew already that physically the truth would not set you free, that freedom he was talking about was spiritual freedom. Just as He suffered for speaking the truth, the fear of speaking the truth haunts many people.

Who is ready to lose his friends, relatives, and job because of the truth? Who is ready to pass through the mental torture of neglect in society because of the truth? Finally, who is ready to face the hostile opposition and pure hate from an empire of deceitful enemies and a brood of vipers because of the truth? 

However, what many people forget is that, like a house that collapses because of its weak foundation, society can never thrive, prosper, and be successful on a foundation of lies, hypocrisy, and the persecution of those who live on the truth. 

You may think you are on top and successful, then suddenly you’ll see yourself once again at the same place you started. That is life, you can’t change that until you live clean.

And for those who are facing all kinds of intimidation, suffering, and persecution because of the truth, stand firm with endurance and perseverance. Even though the pain you are going through is hard to bear sometimes, be happy because of the truthful path you’ve chosen.

If those who live by the sword die by the sword and gun by the gun, then liars will not have a happy ending, too, because God hates lies.

Professor Colin Humphrey's great biblical discovery over "THE LAST SUPPER"

The last supper



Christians have long celebrated Jesus Christ's Last Supper on Maundy Thursday, but new research released Monday claims to show it took place on the Wednesday before the crucifixion.


Professor Colin Humphreys, a scientist at the University of Cambridge, believes it is all due to a calendar mix-up -- and asserts his findings strengthen the case for finally introducing a fixed date for Easter.

Humphreys uses a combination of biblical, historical, and astronomical research to try to pinpoint the precise nature and timing of Jesus's final meal with his disciples before his death.

Researchers have long been puzzled by an apparent inconsistency in the Bible.

While Matthew, Mark, and Luke all say the Last Supper coincided with the start of the Jewish festival of Passover, John claims it took place before Passover.

Humphreys has concluded in a new book, "The Mystery Of The Last Supper", that Jesus -- along with Matthew, Mark, and Luke -- may have been using a different calendar than John.

"Whatever you think about the Bible, the fact is that Jewish people would never mistake the Passover meal for another meal, so for the Gospels to contradict themselves in this regard is really hard to understand," Humphreys said.

"Many biblical scholars say that, for this reason, you can't trust the Gospels at all. But if we use science and the Gospels hand in hand, we can actually prove that there was no contradiction."

In Humphreys' theory, Jesus went by an old-fashioned Jewish calendar rather than the official lunar calendar, which was in widespread use at the time of his death and is still in use today.

This would put the Passover meal -- and the Last Supper -- on Wednesday, explaining how such a large number of events took place between the meal and the crucifixion.

It would follow that Jesus' arrest, interrogation, and separate trials did not all take place in the space of one night but in fact occurred over a longer period.

Humphreys believes a date could, therefore, be ascribed to Easter in our modern solar calendar, and working on the basis that the crucifixion took place on April 3, Easter Day would be on April 5.

World Leaders Must Help Africa Not Be Used As Sanctuary For Terrorism

Terrorism in Africa


Islam means patience, love, and togetherness. That's what the Koran says and the definition that is given by many Muslims when asked to give a little explanation of what the religion is about. 


However, that definition is immediately called into question or disagreed with by the new global desire for violence and the desire of Islamic fanatics to kill innocent people to end their lives. 

Islam is rapidly turning into a more violent religion than the unity and love they advocate. Umar Abdulmutallab, a failed suicide bomber, expressed his terrifying vision of a world run by radical Islamic hardliners in a string of online messages. 

Frequently, the African continent is completely disregarded or undervalued. World leaders are cautioned not to undervalue Africans anymore after this 23-year-old terrorist managed to evade security measures and all of their detectors to board the aircraft to bomb Flight 253, which was traveling from Amsterdam to the United States.

Had his murderous plans been successful, Islamic extremists such as al-Qaeda would have boasted about it and plotted additional assaults. 

It is now time for world leaders to concentrate more on Africa to prevent the usage of that continent as a safe haven for terrorists.

I believe that there will be a time when genuine Muslims and true followers of the Prophet Mohammed will openly speak against what their fanatic brothers are doing and try to do their best to end or reduce this unnecessary global violence, especially in Iraq, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.
