People & Life

Sometimes I could not understand about people and their way of thinking... it's not that I wanna go back to the past, but it's inevitable not to.

Sigh.... this is one of the reason, if not justification, of why I'm not yet able to go back to my Father's Mansion, esp. in the country that I live at the moment. I'm disappointed of how most of the people of the belief think, act and treat people in their daily life. I've been there with them and I (think) I know what to do and what not to do based on what the belief teaches. Call me perfectionist, call me idealist, but it's what's supposed to be done if you have the belief, right? To trust and obey the rules. Seems like most people forget the second rule.

Those kind of people can not provide forgiveness and do not believe that one may improve over time. I've tried to defeat my own emotion and to throw my anger away in handling the situation, but apparently I have to implement what my 'Wise man of the Family" has once taught me: Not to be a fool person because life is broader and greater than to focus on one problem, particularly a person that tackles your way in achieving what's best.

That leads to my second reason of why I'm not ready to go back to my Father yet. There are still some aspects of my life that still needs to be fixed, yeah because I really want it to be perfect to go back and have a deep, personal relationship with my Father. I know how it felt because I've tasted it once, but I fell and still in the process to rise. And yeah... those kind of people I mentioned above are the major barrier. I think it's better to be an Agnostic or a Heathen than to be a blasphemous , cynical yet skeptical Pharisee.

Dude, Whoever you are talking about in this issue, they are all hypocrite! They go to church 7 days in a week, being so called "servant" of God, but they know Nothing about the essence of Christianity. "LOVE, LOVE & LOVE". Loyalty is in the boundary of friendship to them. So, their pattern of conduct is: "you have problem with my friends, you also have problem with me!" Orang-orang ini, Dude, menganggap diri mereka suci, menganggap mereka akan masuk surga, jadi mereka pikir, mereka berhak, atas nama Tuhan, menghakimi orang lain, atas nama gereja, menghasut orang lain, berbicara mengenai kebohongan-kebohongan dalam mempertahankan politiking pertemanan, dan hebatnya, ketika seseorang dianggap "bermanfaat", apapun dosa dan kejelekan orang tersebut dimata mereka, mereka akan berusaha menyukai, mendekati, menjadikannya teman. Uang, connection, like vs dislike, sering kali merubah perspektif orang. Sexual Preference, misalnya, sering dijadikan alat untuk menghancurkan orang lain, sementara orang lain dengan problem sexual preference yang sama, memperoleh toleransi untuk mengiringi mereka bernyanyi memuji Tuhan. Sexual predator saja beredar di gereja tanpa seorangpun berani menegakkan kebenaran. Belum lagi orang orang yang sering kali berbicara mengenai kejelekan orang lain lalu bersembunyi dibalik Alkitabnya. My point is, dude, the hell with these hyprocrite morons!

Be who you are, praktekan apa yang kau pelajari di alkitab itu, tidak judgemental, tidak bergosip, tidak bersungut-sungut dan merasa paling suci, tidak berhati busuk, tidak iri, tidak bergunjing tentang teman sendiri. Dan setialah pada konsep itu, jangan setia pada teman belaka!

You go, man!
