A New Life Altogether


That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; and be renewed in the spirit of your mind; and that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Ephesians 4:22-24.

Conversion is a work that most do not appreciate. It is not a small matter to transform an earthly, sin-loving mind and bring it to understand the unspeakable love of Christ, the charms of His grace, and the excellency of God, so that the soul shall be imbued with divine love and captivated with the heavenly mysteries. When he understands these things, his former life appears disgusting and hateful.

He hates sin, and, breaking his heart before God, he embraces Christ as the life and joy of the soul. He renounces his former pleasures. He has a new mind, new affections, new interest, new will; his sorrows, and desires, and love are all new. . . . Heaven, which once possessed no charms, is now viewed in its riches and glory; and he contemplates it as his future home, where he shall see, love, and praise the One who hath redeemed him by His precious blood. The works of holiness, which appeared wearisome, are now his delight.

The Word of God, which was dull and uninteresting, is now chosen as his study, the man of his counsel. It is as a letter written to him from God, bearing the inscription of the Eternal. His thoughts, his words, and his deeds are brought to this rule and tested. He trembles at the commands and threatenings which it contains, while he firmly grasps its promises and strengthens his soul by appropriating them to himself.

When the transforming grace of Christ is upon the heart, a righteous indignation will take possession of the soul because the sinner has so long neglected the great salvation that God has provided for him. He will then surrender himself, body, soul, and spirit, to God and will withdraw from companionship with Satan, through the grace given him of God.
All need to understand the process of conversion. The fruit is seen in the changed life.

Good morning

My husband woke me up today around 6:30 in the morning. When I tried to stretch, he kissed my stomach and anus, as if I was a baby who just woke up. I smiled and said was it raining? He said that yes it was.

It was so lovely hearing raindrops falling and made some natural noise. I just love hearing the various sounds from God’s creations.

Well, today is a very cold day because it is raining and I bet the weather remains as it is until in the afternoon or even in the evening.

Have a happy cold morning to everyone.

Windy Evening

Tonight, I could feel the mighty rushing wind smack across a huge tree outside the room. It is very windy to the extent that our curtains are being blown by the wind. Well, it is very nice to sleep during cold night even without turning the heater on because you could feel the fresh air coming inside your room.

It is better also if you have someone to cuddle with and to share the coldness. Anyway, it is time for me to enjoy and to experience the coldness of the night brought by the windy and rainy evening. Good night to all.

GLoomy Day


When I woke up today, it was drizzling. It was very cold and windy. My morning was a bit gloomy and cold. It was being brought by the weather and the environment. Well, I hope later which is towards in the afternoon I could still see bright spills of sunshine. To my readers, I hope you have a nice day although over here in UK it is a gloomy day.

Goodnight

It is almost midnight over here in United Kingdom and I am still awake. Well, this is because I am updating my blogs and wanted to burn the midnight oil.

To my avid readers, I hope you enjoy reading my posted articles and I hope you have learned something worth remembering. I must say, good night to you and sleep tight. May the Lord will keep watch over you until the morning has broken.

The Test of Character


And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Malachi 3:3.

Many who profess sanctification are entirely ignorant of the work of grace upon the heart. . . . They lay aside reason and judgment, and depend wholly upon their feelings, basing their claims to sanctification upon emotions which they have at some time experienced. . . .

Bible sanctification does not consist in strong emotion. Here is where many are led into error. They make feelings their criterion. When they feel elated or happy, they claim that they are sanctified. Happy feelings or the absence of joy is no evidence that a person is or is not sanctified. . . . Those who are battling with daily temptations, overcoming their own sinful tendencies, and seeking for holiness of heart and life, make no boastful claims of holiness. They are hungering and thirsting for righteousness. Sin appears to them exceedingly sinful.

In summer, as we look upon the trees of the distant forest, all clothed with a beautiful mantle of green, we may not be able to distinguish between the evergreens and the other trees. But as winter approaches, and the frost king encloses them in his icy embrace, stripping the other trees of their beautiful foliage, the evergreens are readily discerned. Thus it will be with all who are walking in humility, distrustful of self, but clinging tremblingly to the hand of Christ.

While those who are self-confident, and trust in their own perfection of character, lose their false robe of righteousness when subjected to the storms of trial, the truly righteous, who sincerely love and fear God, wear the robe of Christ's righteousness in prosperity and adversity alike.

It requires the testing time to reveal the pure gold of love and faith in the character. When trials and perplexities come upon the church, then the steadfast zeal and warm affections of Christ's true followers are developed.
