Confirmation

Matthew 5
11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. 12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. 13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Men must not eat by bread alone. Men must eat meat and fruits and vegetables to go to perfection. The basis of Confirmation for us Catholics should be when the person has the capability to discern both good and evil regardless of age. So there can be some who will be accelerated especially if they are raised by parents who strictly follow the doctrines of Jesus.

In connection with this, I have also suggested that the Candidate for Confirmation be put in a test to know if the person in living in Christian ways. There should be a background investigation, a written examination and a final interview. This is Limbo. The person passes this, the person is officially a Catholic.

Ephesians 5
22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

Confirmation is like getting married. The tests are to make sure there is no spots, no wrinkles and such.

Luke 2
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Once you are confirmed, the Church you belong to is your heaven while you have peace and good will with other churches and religions. In the same way that your Wife or Husband is your heaven while you have peace and good will to friends and neighbors. That is why we do not say Honey to friends and neighbors because God is a jealous God. You also follow the commandments you made for each other not because you are scared of God but because you love God unconditionally. Of course you also love and respect churches within your family umbrella.

Romans 16
1 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea: 2 That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer of many, and of myself also.

3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus: 4 Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles. 5 Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my wellbeloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ. 6 Greet Mary, who bestowed much labour on us. 7 Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellowprisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me. 8 Greet Amplias my beloved in the Lord. 9 Salute Urbane, our helper in Christ, and Stachys my beloved. 10 Salute Apelles approved in Christ. Salute them which are of Aristobulus' household. 11 Salute Herodion my kinsman. Greet them that be of the household of Narcissus, which are in the Lord. 12 Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord. 13 Salute Rufus chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine. 14 Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren which are with them. 15 Salute Philologus, and Julia, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints which are with them. 16 Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.

Bi means Husband and Wife pairs or Man and Woman pairs. 'I hear babies cryin'. I watch them grow. They'll learn much more than I'll ever know, And I think to myself, What a wonderful world.'

I will end my blog here.

Spiritual Church

Why are people obsessed with the butt? Why is that? Because I usually look people in the face so I can't check out their butt. But to answer these 'inquisitive' people on 'Does God have a butt?' My answer is it is implied. We cannot see the spirit so this is a spiritual butt. The doctrines of Jesus is the bread and the traditions complete the meal so naturally it is digested spiritually. You have the intestines so the evaluation process should be long so that the nutrients are distributed to the body. You vomit when the food you take is spoiled or contaminated. The waste product are the bad or good experiences. You learn lessons from experiences. Likewise you avoid food that has evil appearance or presentation.

Babies need baby food so you put extra care in teaching them. Post cute pictures of animals to amuse these babies and the toddlers. They grow into adolescent, adulthood and elder-hood.

"Here at home, at the movies, with the kids watching some disney/pixar." I see this instagram, twitter and facebook. Actually the parents and adults just embarrassed to say it but its them who loves the cartoons. And of course anime. Would you believe that grown men are gushing even on the love story of Naruto and Hinata? Yep these people are supposed to be toughies cause they are hard core boxing fans. Well and good so children can ask them about what they do not understand.

The problem is when children surf to adult films at their homes. There should be internet censorship in your respective homes because that is your duty as responsible parents.

Matthew 5
11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. 12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. 13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Its best to put the baby in a stroller to make the baby comfortable and safe when going around. And for the batman customization, why not? if its within the budget. 

Hey guys, you know why I urge you to be Teachers? Firstly you help students in learning. Secondly, you learn how to be patient. Thirdly, you'll have mastery of the subject because you start teaching from step one so you remember things and you learn new things as well. Its like a refresher course.

Lesson in Jonah

Jonah 4
6 And the Lord God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd. 7 But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd that it withered. 8 And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live. 9 And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death. 10 Then said the Lord, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:

So in searching for the kingdom of God. God commanded Jonah to go to Nineveh. He encountered rival mariners to whom Jonah encountered hostility. But God favors Jonah so God calmed the mariners. Jonah inside the whale belly is Jonah opening up himself to God and telling him personal stories. So God again commanded Jonah to continue going to Nineveh so that Jonah can convince people about his love for God and his commandments.

Then Jonah whined about the gourd or inspiration God gave him cause Jonah wants more.

Matthew 12
38Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee. 39But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: 40For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 41The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.

From the story of Jonah, Jesus learns that faith brings perseverance. And we must endure until the end. I told you guys, that the Early Christians have read and have deliberated upon the Old Testament and in conclusion that the New Testament is enough for you to be righteous and happy and contented.

"Nothing good comes easy, All good things take some time"

Matthew 4

18 And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. 19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. 20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. 21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. 22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.

24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them. 25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

Food and Nutrition

Exodus 12
8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. 9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof. 10 And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.

1 Corinthians 7
6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: 8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

The Early Christians have read the Old Testament and found out not only it is outdated, its also malicious, wicked and insincere. In Exodus, it talks of a sheep killed for dinner and you shall let nothing remain of it. This leads to Gluttony because you eat as much as you can cause the left-overs are a waste. Now we have good chefs and nutritionists who have healthy and clean practices in preparing food. We also have refrigerators that you don't have to eat all you can.

Acts 10
9 On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour: 10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, 11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth: 

12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. 13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. 14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. 15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.

So its like a Bureau of Food and Drugs (BFAD) seal of approval. God says these food are good for you cause they are delicious and nutritious. Ask the doctors. Beef is protein which gives you long term energy because when you have protein and you exercise, it is converted to muscles to make you strong. Carbohydrates is short term energy. Scallops is one of my favorites, tastes like prawn but with texture. Beef fat is actually good for the brains. You cannot get this nutrition from fishes and vegetables alone. If the BFAD approves it, it is safe to eat.

Ecclesiastes 9
7 Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

It is advisable that you drink wine in celebration. Not when you have a problem because it worsens things.

Matthew 4
1 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

In other words, the bread is the foundation or the doctrines of Jesus. You shall not live by bread alone but rather eat all the edible foods as recommended by God or BFAD so your body will go into perfection. Like the Church allows for traditions to make it perfect.

The foundation is layers of strong rock. Only a man and a woman shall be joined in marriage. Quite fitting, this is set in stone. Same-sex marriage is forever disallowed in the doctrines of Jesus.

So one asks, can girls wear pants? Like there are capable women leaders, you can wear pants. If you are easily tempted in looking at people wearing pants, then something is wrong with you. Do not go outside or watch television or media where you can see people wearing pants. Do not place undue importance on the physical. The Doctrines of Jesus is after the spiritual. But the devil is after the spirit as well. So dress modestly. With that, I think women look good in slacks and jeans. Why some people think its immodest for women to wear pants? With this reasoning, why is it not immodest for men to wear pants?

1 Timothy 2
8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. 9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

The hands are symbolic of the King and Queen sitting at the thrones. Or Husband and Wife. Of Man and Woman. You need both hands.

Verse 8 says that Men should be confident at all times with their apparel, without arrogance and indecision. While Women should be modest at all times, with honor (shamefacedness) and discipline (sobriety).

Since it says there in Verse 9 In like manner, thus, Men and Women should be confident and modest with their apparels. We are disabled if we use only one hand. 

Discipline a Child

You have to be a good father so that your children will follow your example. Is there such thing as a black sheep? Some people will get rebellious and loud and noisy when not given enough attention from parents. In the Parable of the Prodigal Son, its mainly the child's fault that he spend all the money on luxuries. That become possible when the father gave him his inheritance at a young age. Money is earned, not given. So for responsible parents, you do not give luxuries to children. They want something, they must work for it. They can get part-time work in companies like a Batarisan trainee in Unilever and restaurants or they can be entrepreneurs at their young age.

You should be patient with your kids up to 77 times. As they say, adolescents are unruly like cats. When they mature they become dogs. If you love your kids, you will find a way. When you are busy, you arrange your schedule so you can spend time with your kids. Or at least through mobile phones and video conferences.

Universal Doctrines

Acts 9:31 (Greek Bible), "ai men oun ekklēsiai kath olēs tēs ioudaias kai galilaias kai samareias eichon eirēnēn oikodomoumenai kai poreuomenai tō phobō tou kuriou kai tē paraklēsei tou agiou pneumatos eplēthunonto" EKKLESIA KATH'OLES.

The term "Catholic", derived from the Greek word καθολικός (katholikos), which means "universal" or "general", was also used to describe the Church in the early 2nd century. The term katholikos is equivalent to καθόλου (katholou), a contraction of the phrase καθ' ὅλου (kath' holou) meaning "according to the whole". Thus the full name Catholic Church roughly means "universal" or "whole" church.

My opinion is that the doctrines of Jesus is universal. Not the church. The churches add traditions (titles, names, among others) that is suited to their locality, ethnicity, country and culture as long as the traditions have the essence of love which is faith, hope and charity. Of course, the foundations are the doctrines of Jesus.

There is a young man who did not follow Jesus because his possessions are great. It means the religion has similar teachings than that of Jesus and he chose it because it is closer to his heart. Jesus is actually happy to meet and be friends and neighbors with like-minded people.

1 Corinthians
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; 6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. 

13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Love is faith, hope and charity. Charity is communication. In Love, the greatest is Communication. Inter-Religious dialogue is the most important of all.

Religion is taking good care of each member in the flock. Its not about the numbers but rather the Love you give to members.

Luke 15
4 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? 5 And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6 And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.

Farm Ville

Vultures in general eats the flesh of the dead. Because that is the nature of vultures. They feed on the dead. Spiritually, there are people feeding on the dead. Dead in the Bible means corrupted, ignorant and stupid people.

Ephesians 2
1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

Matthew 8
21 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

Luke 9
57 And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest. 58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head. 59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. 61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house. 62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

Hebrews 6
1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this will we do, if God permit. 

In Luke it says there once you put your hand to the plough, go on moving forward because the carabao is ready and the field is ready. So we can sow the seeds in the good soil. The kingdom of God is waiting and that is the most important thing.

The Lord said that he does not know where to lay his head. The road becomes his bride. Does that mean he is constantly traveling? Yes I would say in his youth. But we travel spiritually in going to perfection, we research for new technology, ideas and philosophies and if they are of good spirit, then follow it.

Forward, always forward I go. You learn from bad and good experiences, however, do not walk back into it. Go forward.

Jesus' Last Will and Testament

As we talked about, the Revelation is likened to the happenings and events in a Kingdom and a country. Revelation 6 talks of seven seals. This is the last will and testament of Jesus that he dictated to John.

The one sitting at the throne, of course, is the wife of Jesus. The Lamb is Peter. Because the Lion is Jesus. The Lamb is sacrificed for the Lion. I believe, in other words, the Apprentice.

We talked of talents and those are ones that Jesus talked about in his will. He was assigning duties and responsibilities before he pass away.

Revelation 6
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

Peter as the Apprentice of Jesus, presided on the opening of the seals. The four beasts are four Bishops they have produced at the time.

The first seal is a person with a bow on a white horse. Peter because we usually vote for the highest position first.

The second seal, a person with a great sword on a red horse. Sword means speaking and media, I think their News head.

The third seal, a person with a pair of balances on a black horse. The Judge.

The fourth seal, a person with a sword on a pale horse. The Trailblazer who is chief for foreign relations.

Will continue this later for sure. :)

Saving Lives

I read the news about the suicide of a young actress and you get saddened with this though you didn't know the person. When I clicked on the link, I get scared with the paranormal artwork she has been making that I went out of my room and watch some television.

Guys when you see people with these kind of artwork, go out of your way and befriend these people. They might not tell you their problems but they will appreciate that someone appreciates their presence in this world.

Cold weather, silence and the night will make you extra scary so you turn on lights, listen to loud music and talk to people. The best thing to do is to pray to send the negative thoughts away. God sends angels to his people.

That is why when I see a tomboyish girl, I make extra effort to cast away the evil spirit on the person.

Mark 9
25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. 26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead. 27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. 28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out? 29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

God has given you the talents and authority to cast out these evil spirits in people. Try the Spirits. Avoid every appearance of evil. When the discussion is disgusting, get away from it.

Galatians 5
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

To continue, the following commandments are plain, simple and direct to the point. You just have to walk in it. Sometimes the New Testament speaks of mysteries as well so find the Teachers for the answers.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Family Planning

Ephesians 1
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 

6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. 7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; 8 Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; 9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: 10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: 11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Ephesians 6
4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

The Husbands entrusts to the Wife the teaching of good values and right conduct to the children. He reminds the children to follow their Mother when he is not around. The Husband is working to support the family according to the plans he made with the Wife. As the couple is joined through love, their planning for children is also about love, They decide on how many children they gonna have in a way that they can give love to the children like they have the capabilities to send the children to schools and raise them to be good citizens. Have children if you will love them and have the resources to take care of each and every one of them.

In the same manner, you teach children how to care for other people and have discipline. You can teach children responsibility in helping the family in little ways and you can also adopt a pet for them. But only if the children loves to have a pet and they have plans and take care of the pets. Otherwise, don't get pets if you will not take care of them. Adopt pets if you love pets.

However, newly-weds are not to have pets because their time is for each other only.

Covenant

Ecclesiastes 7
25 I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness: 26 And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her. 27 Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account: 28 Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found. 29 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.

This is a rant from a person who is jealous and insecure. The person is jealous of the attention the women are getting. There are 1000 men listening to the person however there is only one man is supportive. So the person does not include women to gain all the attention. On who the righteous is, I think this is a case of He said, She said.

Titus 3
9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

Hebrews 8
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. 8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: 9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. 

That is why the Apostles and Early Christians have recommended that you people read the New Testament because it has the complete guidelines for you to have a righteous life.

Leveling Up

The Parable of the Talents
Matthew 25
14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. 15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. 16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. 17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. 18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. 20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. 21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. 23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. 26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: 27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. 29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. 30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

When talents are developed, it would lead to more talents to be learned. When a religion prevents their citizens, especially women, in developing their talents, they are dependent like babies who cries and gnash their teeth. And what progress can a country attain if their citizens are baby-like? Oil is a combustible material and if the oil wells cannot produce anymore and the citizens are babies, what would happen to the country? I am telling you this because I am concerned on your future. Invest on your people especially the women and children so that they will be educated and can help the country later on. I see Moslem women in the Philippines working at the shops and that is a pity. Are they good only for that kind of work? Definitely not. Like we discussed before, women are capable of having high positions in government as long as they have the qualities of a leader. The traditions and laws preventing them to be educated and to work should be changed or altogether removed.

This can be illustrated in the following Digimon Digivolving:

We discussed earlier the five talents and it means you can develop more skills if you have goals, you persevere and you communicate. 

Administrators: As Leaders you become Mayors, Governors and Presidents or Prime Ministers. 

Lawmakers: As Authorities of the law and actions of people, you become Lawyers and Judges.

Ambassadors: As Envoys locally and overseas, you become Entertainers, Celebrities, Trailblazers and Royalty.

Speakers: As speakers and debaters you become Toastmasters, Media people, Congressmen and Senators.

Teachers: Teachers become Fishermen - Fishers of men.

These talents will overlap somewhere so there are many skills and responsibilities to be learned and positions and duties to be had within these talents. You just have to be patient, according to your own pace to level up. Keep on punching. 

What am I saying is that the Spirit is what is important according to Jesus. Believe it or not. Did you look at the elevator going several floors up or are you looking at the girl stripping? Yeah right.

I am saying here that this is something only a husband should see.

Monna Lisa Smile

The Mona Lisa (Italian: Monna Lisa or La Gioconda, French: La Joconde) or La Gioconda is a half-length portrait of a woman by the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci, which has been acclaimed as "the best known, the most visited, the most written about, the most sung about, the most parodied work of art in the world".

The sitter, Lisa del Giocondo,[8][9] was a member of the Gherardini family of Florence and Tuscany, and the wife of wealthy Florentine silk merchant Francesco del Giocondo.[10] The painting is thought to have been commissioned for their new home, and to celebrate the birth of their second son, Andrea.[11] The Italian name for the painting, La Gioconda, means "jocund" ("happy" or "jovial"), or literally "the jocund one", a pun on the feminine form of the sitter's married name Giocondo.[10][12] In French, the title La Joconde has the same meaning.

I think Leonardo da Vinci is in love with the Lady Lisa. He kept on working on the painting for years. I would also think that he has shown the painting to the Lady who has a nasty pair of eyebrows and a big smile. Leonardo is just teasing the Lady with his painting of her with no eyebrows and a faint smile.

What is Leonardo doing with all the reworking of the painting? He is reminiscing about her moods because her smile and face is tattooed on his mind.

I dunno, it just occurred to me that Mona is from Mon Amie which means My Friend. I know that is a french word that usually the greeting of Hercule Poirot, Agatha Christie's detective and its almost certain that Leonardo could have known the term Mon Amie. That is why I shared the video.

Testaments

The New Testament is a commentary of the Old Testament. There are apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. People have gifts for administration, law-making, ambassadors, speaking and teaching. These are the five talents.

Admin people have mastery of the law and they have the discipline to enforce the law to fellow officials. Law-makers reviews the old laws to revise them, to make them obsolete and make new laws. Ambassadors are charismatic people who influences people with the obedience of the law. Speakers have mastery of the subject they are speaking about. Teachers have the faith and perseverance in making students learn because Teachers love it when their students graduate and start to apply the lessons in their lives. Why is Speakers different from Teachers? Speakers are representative of a particular subject or person so they should know all the history on the subject and person. Teachers can connect to people without speaking.

God has given you talents so make use of it. When you have two or more talents, then you are a Divergent.

Do not bury your talent/s like the person in the Parable of the Talents. Develop it to become successful.

Hebrews 8
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. 8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: 9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. 10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: 11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. 12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. 13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.

Read and follow the New Testament, that is the advice of the Early Christians because they have read the Old Testament and they find errors in it and laws not applicable for their time and place.

My advice for you people is to read the New Testament first. If you feel you have the gift for interpreting, then go on with the Old Testament. Because responsible and thorough lawmakers can learn from reviewing the bad and the good. Some of the laws in the New Testament are plain and simple. You just have to follow it. For laws you find difficult to understand, you ask and listen to Teachers.

It is implied above that the New Testament is after the Spirit - put the laws into their mind and write it in their hearts. Its like when you have a Last Song Syndrome or LSS. The rhythm keeps ringing in your mind so you search for the lyrics. When the music and lyrics synched, then its written into your heart.

Law of Love

Okay here's a group of lawless monkeys and the one I pointed with the arrow is undoubtedly the Leader. Because it is the biggest and most physically fit. That is the law of the jungle. Survival of the fittest. The most powerful reigns. As Leader of the pack, I am sure it has several wives and probably one or two submissive male monkeys as assistants. I have observed this phenomenon on a couple of zoos. What separates humans from monkeys is that the monkeys do not know they are naked. It doesn't care how many females it fathers as long as the lust of the flesh is satisfied because they are animals. It doesn't care on the well-being of their children. The most important thing for the Leader is its own survival. We're not monkeys.

I think there is homosexuality among monkeys and this is the cause of Ebola virus. Not the sexuality. I mean the sexual acts. Its like Sodom and Gomorrah. As animals, they do not have the laws to be decent. So the best solution for these is to put them in a controlled environment like animal zoos. Do we need monkeys in the ecosystem? Or are they actually nuisance to the jungles? Its up to the researchers the solution for this.

Aside from men, the natural predator for monkeys is the eagle so you have to put monkey-eating eagles in that part of the world.

I tell you the time I am in the zoo, a group of monkeys is roaming around, when I get around to a bend, they have barricaded the road. The numbers are like that in the picture above. There's one who has a tree branch and making sounds like commanding the group. I turned around and see a zoo attendant and told her the problem. She gets a big tree branch and makes sweeping motions against the ground. The monkeys ran away in all directions.

Cats and dogs in the wild are a nuisance, unsightly and sometimes dangerous because they have rabies. Especially wild dogs because they are aggressive. Sometimes private shelters like the one above and also individuals rescue. However its the government which must step in and get these cats and dogs away from the streets so that the streets are less dangerous.

Cats and dogs in the wild will have acquired diseases so I am sure the Veterinarians have castrated the cats in the picture above. Those in the cages still have their sexual organs. 

Cats and dogs are domesticated pets. Families take care of pets because they teach responsibility to children. In this regard, my advise for newly weds is to procreate, have fun and help other people. Pets are for children and to all the lonely people of the world.

Game of Thrones

I just started The Book of Revelation and as I said that Jesus formed a secret society to help people. Try to envision the Revelation as the ceremonies and the events and happenings in a Kingdom or a country for that matter. In Chapter 1, John was speaking here and we can see a dying Jesus who is dictating his Last Will and Testament to John. Its quite saddening news. I am not in the mood to read all. In other times for sure. I just scanned it and in Chapter 5 is the formal announcement of Peter as the new Lord. The four living creatures is that they have produced four Bishops at the time and the 24 elders would be the Deacons. These are all symbolism.

Co-Existent

Basically the verses above is the same as the Golden rule:

Confucius
Don't do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you.”

Matthew 7
12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

Hadith, Abu Dawud 41:4832 simply just say keep company with like-minded people. Its natural you make friends with people who shares the same ideologies, hobbies, food among others. It also says here Muslims should be pious or righteous.

And in Quran 2:191-193, this is a metaphor. Allah means your loved one here. Say your wife is your Allah because she is amazing and she makes everything nice and she glides in the air. The ones you should kill are the urges to have other women because worship is for Allah alone. You should only have one wife. You should transgress or be angry at womanizers (polytheists) and wrong-doers because they are not righteous. 

God is Patient

The Bible says Jesus knows that Judas Escariot will betray him but it makes no sense that they will allow that to happen. I would think this is a sarcasm. Jesus has been deceived with the faith and cries of Escariot. That is the logical thing that happened. The betrayal came as a surprise to them because Escariot is one of them in the inner circle. The members hanged him Escariot.

Hebrews 6
1Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3And this will we do, if God permit. 4For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

When you already know the doctrines of Jesus and you disregard it, its like crucifying him again because you shamed him again. In disobeying the doctrines of Jesus, you shame yourself, your loved ones, your family, your Church and those who have high hopes that you are doing good works. Its like when people in recent history put the image of Jesus in the cross crucified. You are putting him in shame because the original cross has no image of Jesus in it. The meaning of the cross is Welcome. Although as we always maintained, we are after the spiritual. Follow the doctrines of Jesus and will not shame further.

I think Jesus is a learned man that is why the apostles call him a God. The miracles I discussed before there is no supernatural happenings there. Its like when you describe a beautiful woman that she is an angel because she is amazing.

It seemed to me that Jesus was rescued and it was an incredible undertaking that made Thomas doubt. Oh man I don't know where I am going with this. Okay just go with it. The Roman soldiers gambled in letting Jesus go. To be clear this is symbolic, the soldiers let Jesus go thus taking a chance with their own lives.

Hey guys, I think I better read the whole New Testament to have a clearer picture of what happened here. For starters, I think the New Testament is a commentary of Jesus and the Apostles about the Old Testament. The main commenters are Luke, Matthew, John and Mark are focused on the doctrines of Jesus. While the rest of the books are more on the history and correspondence of the secret society. 

I am hoping that you will understand the doctrines of Jesus that is why I am continuously communicating with you. I also have faith that you communicate with me so I know what it is to have patience. 

Hey guys @ 3:00 Soul Power!

I just want to share this cause I like the film and the soundtrack. 'Sharon Stone' is the Avenger who comes back to town to avenge his father's death. 'Gene Hackman' the Antagonist who kills his arrogant son 'Leonardo DiCaprio' and 'Russel Crowe' is a Priest who becomes a Sheriff who becomes a Slave who becomes a Gladiator.

Holy Kiss

Romans 16

1 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea: 2 That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer of many, and of myself also.

3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus: 4 Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles. 5 Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my wellbeloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ. 6 Greet Mary, who bestowed much labour on us. 7 Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellowprisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me. 8 Greet Amplias my beloved in the Lord. 9 Salute Urbane, our helper in Christ, and Stachys my beloved. 10 Salute Apelles approved in Christ. Salute them which are of Aristobulus' household. 11 Salute Herodion my kinsman. Greet them that be of the household of Narcissus, which are in the Lord. 12 Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord. 13 Salute Rufus chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine. 14 Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren which are with them. 15 Salute Philologus, and Julia, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints which are with them. 16 Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.

The Holy Kiss described here is to offer his or her life to the Church. Like to curtsey when infront of royalty. To bow for the Japanese. For Filipinos, the hand-kissing. The Buddhists, Hindu, Muslims and most cultures, they have their own type of bow too. See the above-underlined terms: LAID DOWN THEIR NECKS. The Early Christians laid their necks in salutation. This is the Holy Kiss.

Allegiance or membership is voluntary and unconditional because we have free will and love comes natural. When you impose your beliefs to people, its like executing them.

This is why I believe Eddard Stark shouldn't have been executed. I mean, come on man. Cruel that man.

Follow Jesus

Matthew 8
21 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

The dead are wallowing in sins, ignorance and stupidity. Let the dead glorify the dead. You guys who are living have found a new heaven and a new earth. So go and explore your new world. Procreate, have fun and help other people. Baptize other people with your light. Influence them with your thinking, words and actions

Follow Jesus. Avoid all appearances of evil. Women should behave modestly, honorably and with self-control. Men as leaders should show people how it is to be modest, honorable and disciplined. Absolutely NO to same-sex relationships. You are dead in spirit if you continue the corruption. 

To be clear, I am not judging nor condemning anyone in the video because they do not know the law. Now that you know the doctrines of Jesus, go and sin no more.

Corrupt

: cause to act dishonestly in return for money or personal gain.

: change or debase by making errors or unintentional alterations.

Follow the doctrines of Jesus in this blog. Do not change or debase it.

James 4
17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

I have a special affinity with nuns because I studied in a Catholic school of the Religious for the Virgin Mary (RVM) nuns from grade school to high school. I think the rainbows here meant the Eunuchs because you can learn from these people also. However avoid all appearances of evil. No to same-sex relationships. If the Eunuchs are modest, honorable and disciplined and they follow the doctrines of Jesus, I will follow their works.

Early History of the RCC

Lord Jesus Christ is the Founding Bishop of the Roman Catholic Church. Because it is implied in the Bible. The Bible talks of a Bishop and Deacons. When Jesus retired because of family, he appointed Simon Peter as the new Lord. Jesus remains as an adviser for the Church.

Matthew 16
13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

So people are wondering, if this is the Church of Jesus, why didn't he name it after his own name? Why choose Roman Catholic Church? See the underlined verse above. THE DISCIPLES SHOULD TELL NO MAN THAT HE WAS JESUS THE CHRIST. Understand now people? There is a need for secrecy and my opinion is that there is hostility between Church and State. Although the main reason I think is the humbleness being preached in the Bible that all the members decided on the name of Roman Catholic Church. Because Jesus was not afraid of physical harm to himself. I think he was thinking of his loved ones and that they always be safe. The proof is Jesus did not attempted to escape from the government authorities.

1 Timothy 3
1 This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.    2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; 4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) 6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. 7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

8 Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre; 9 Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless. 11 Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things. 12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. 13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

It is also written that Jesus said to Simon Peter that the latter will deny him 3 times when Jesus was being persecuted or scrutinized by the good cops and the bad cops because Jesus was courting the special woman. I think this is a coded message that means Simon Peter reluctantly accepts the leadership of the Catholic Church cause Jesus gets married. This is Simon Peter's song.

So I asked earlier if Simon Peter marries. From the song of Dan Fogelberg, Simon Peter travels to foreign places cause he stay in some motels, for Church and pleasure presumably. And from Peter Cetera song, Simon Peter falls in love with a foreign beauty and he intends to marry her. Of course this is just speculation cause it needs proof from the Bible. I know that this seems like a funny connection cause I heard Chicago and Peter, So just treat this as fiction until I find further proof in the Bible.

2 Peter 3
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

In the two letters of Peter to early christians, he acknowledges Jesus as the founder. And in the verses above, he is saying the leadership of Jesus is the same as his leadership. He speaks as Lord Simon Peter here and he holds on to the Doctrines of Jesus. That is the meaning of one day with the Lord is same as thousand years.

1 Peter 5
13 The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.

Peter has a son named Marcus. As having a Christian way of living, we can assume Peter married.

Were Early Christians members of a secret society? I'm not saying a vigilante like Batman but primarily to help people.

Hey guys, read up on this. http://biblehub.com/kjv/revelation/20.htm

I think John is saying here that after the leadership of Peter, there emerged a tyrant leader and the doctrines of the Bible were sealed. John writes in hope that future generations can decode this and go back to the doctrines of Jesus.

I had this conclusion because John said "Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years." He mentioned thousand years on which Peter has described both his reign and Jesus' reign within the period. Its like John quoted Peter on this.

"Rev. 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea."

The secret society has been exposed. And the members were persecuted.

A Thousand Years is symbolic of the reign of Jesus and Peter. When people start following the doctrines of Jesus again is the start of Thousand Years more reign of Love.

Revelation 20
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

To continue, the books were opened one by one meaning goodness prevailed over the centuries as there are many religions and institutions which goals are to help people, educate them and unite them. Basically they convey love. They have read and followed some of the doctrines of Jesus and some have the doctrines written in their hearts. These people are written in the book of life. But those who endure shall be saved so keep doing good. We just have to explain the correct meaning of the Doctrines of Jesus and follow it. The corrupted people are not listed in the book of life because they are still dead, wallowing in sins, ignorance and stupidity.

Catholic Traditions

1. Cross. The Cross is a Welcome symbol. We make the sign of the Cross to be friendly to everyone.

Colossians 3
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

2. Baby Baptism. Traditions are allowed in the Bible as long as it has a good purpose. In this case, to welcome the baby to the world, we have celebration with family, relatives, friends and guests. As parents, we want all nations be witness to our love for our baby. It says in the Bible. And also for the birth certificate. Of course the baby doesn't know anything about the doctrines. That is what the Confirmation is for. Why would you immerse a baby in a tub of water or swimming pool? The baby might get drowned. So sprinkling is okay.

3. Confirmation. I haven't had my Confirmation yet but from my understanding is to confirm that you understand the doctrines. To make official of becoming a Catholic which calls for another celebration. This is my opinion here, the Catholic Church should test the Candidate for Confirmation to see if the person knows the doctrines. And also investigate the kind of life the person lives to see if the person has Christian Living. So it is not supposed to be automatic. Until Confirmation, the candidate is in Limbo. As we said, the Bible is after the Spirit. There's no argument if there is sprinkling here again.

4. Wedding

5. Inter-Religious Dialogues.

6. Kneeling. Has royal origins. Like of citizens being knighted.

7. Funeral. Be calm folks.  Death is a natural progression for us so just trust in the will of God and do good works. My belief is that we should cremate the lifeless body and the ashes should be put in the earth. Ashes to ashes it says in the Bible.
