The Marriage Supper of the Lamb

Mardi, septembre 25th, 2007

By Alan D Campbell Jesus Christ will marry the church when he returns to set up the Kingdom of God. He loved the church and gave himself for it as recorded in Ephesians 5:25-27: “25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
27That 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.” (KJV) Yes, Jesus Christ wants his church to be a glorious church without any spots, wrinkles, or blemishes. He will marry the church. He wants his bride the Church of God to be holy. Spots What are spots? Spots are our sins. Sin is the transgression of the law of God (I John 3:4). We must ask God to remove our spots and do our part to prevent any future spots. Linen does not come with spots. However, sin easily besets us. We must strive with Gods help to become blameless and without spot. Wrinkles What do wrinkles represent? Wrinkles represent our character flaws. The wrinkles must be removed from our garment if we are to attend the marriage supper of the Lamb. The Marriage Supper of the Lamb Revelation 19:6-9 describes how the wife of Jesus Christ, which is the Church of God, has made herself ready for the marriage supper of the Lamb: “6And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
7Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.” (KJV) All of our righteousness is like filthy rags (Isaiah 64:6). We must put on the righteousness of Jesus Christ, which is typified by linen. What are the three properties of the linen we should put on for the marriage supper of the Lamb? The linen is fine, it is clean, and it is white. The Linen Is Fine Linen Linen is made from the flax plant. Fine linen has always been considered a fabric of luxury. Luxury items are expensive, and we were bought with a great price through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. God is seeking excellence in quality and beauty of character. Fine linen can be produced only through the carefully controlled use of moisture and heat. Our own efforts alone are not sufficient. Without God’s help, we can do nothing. Linen is strong and highly durable. Strength and endurance are important character traits to God Linen wrinkles easily. Likewise, sin can so easily beset us. One must set an iron at the hottest setting to remove the wrinkles. The heat symbolizes the trials that we must endure that help refine our character. However, linen absorbs water readily. Likewise, we are to absorb the Holy Spirit. The water used in the ironing process is symbolic of Gods Holy Spirit, which we need to endure our trials. Just as water helps to remove wrinkles from linen, likewise the Holy Spirit helps us remove our spiritual wrinkles. Linen is lustrous, which means that it reflects light. We are to reflect God’s light to the world. The Linen Is Clean Fine linen soils less quickly than cotton, and it gives up stains readily. However, any stains on linen should be removed by laundering the stains when fresh. If allowed to set, stains may be impossible to remove at a later date. We must resist sin, and quickly repent when we do sin. The blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin upon our confession and repentance (I John 1:9). We have to have faith that all means all. We have to forgive ourselves and let go of the guilt because Jesus Christs blood is the precious bride price. Jesus Christ wants the linen we will wear to the marriage supper of the Lamb to be clean because Jesus Christ is clean. The Linen Is White Fine linen must be bleached to bring out its potential pure white beauty. The finest results are produced by grass bleaching, in which the linen is spread out in the fields to be gradually bleached by the sun. Chemical bleaching is more commonly used, as it is less time consuming, but it can injure the fabric and adversely affect its durability. God says in Isaiah 1:18 “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” (KJV) High quality linens improve with age and become whiter, smoother, and more lustrous. Likewise, we are to grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ (II Peter 3:18). Conclusion As we await the return of Jesus Christ and the marriage supper of the Lamb, we should prepare our garments. The marriage supper of the Lamb will be a great wedding feast. We must seek the forgiveness of Jesus Christ to remove our stains and strive diligently with the help of the Holy Spirit to remove all of our wrinkles. We should let our light shine as we reflect the luster of the righteousness of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ will return to the earth, marry his bride the Church of God, and set up the Kingdom of God. That is good news. Alan D. Campbell lives in Brandon, Florida.

Jet Lag Pills - Panacea or Placebo Effect?

Lundi, septembre 24th, 2007

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Donald_Saunders] Donald Saunders We live in an age that demands an instant cure for every conceivable ailment under the sun and so it’s no surprise that jet lag has joined the band of conditions for which there is the promise of a cure in the form of a pill. But can a pill really provide the panacea to jet lag, or are the results of taking such pills nothing more than imagined. Jet lag is a common sleep disorder that just about any long-haul air traveler will be familiar with. It is caused by the body’s inability to reset its internal clock quickly enough to bring it into line with local time when arriving at your destination. For example, consider flying from London to Singapore. You arrive at eight o’clock in the morning local time to start a busy day of meetings or sightseeing. Your internal clock, however, is still set on London time of two o’clock in the morning and is telling you that you should be in bed and fast asleep. Whatever method you use for either preventing or curing jet lag, and there are many different ways of doing this, the end result must be a realignment of your own body clock to that of local time, if the symptoms of jet lag are to disappear. So can this be achieved with a simple pill? One of the most widely used pills available today is a homeopathic preparation containing such things as extracts from the chamomile plant and a common form of daisy. Now while homeopathic remedies have a long and well established history, and while chamomile itself is known for its properties in assisting sleep, it seems more than a little far fetched to suggest that taking a pill before you take off will fast forward your body clock some six hours during the course of your flight from London to Singapore. So why do so many people swear by such pills? There are probably four reasons: First, we are conditioned to believe that the advance of science is such that doctors can cure just about anything today and so why shouldn’t we believe in a pill to cure jet lag. Second, different drug trials have demonstrated time and time again the power of the “placebo effect”. In other words, the mere fact that something is being done to combat a condition can in itself produce the felling that it works. Third, jet lag doesnt always kick in straight away. Were all familiar with the fact that a few late nights doesnt always effect us straight away and that it may be two or three days before our late nights catch up with us. Because many travelers also feel fine for their first couple of days they assume that the pills must have worked. When jet lag does catch up with them, they then often wrongly attribute their symptoms to the change in climate or something they’ve eaten. Fourth, the sale of pills, of any description, is big businesses supported by big advertising budgets and clever marketing. This marketing extends to jet lag pills and is even supported by studies which clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of such pills. The only problem here is that many of the studies quoted are fundamentally flawed and lack any detail. Most studies, for example, involve airline crews, in particular cabin staff, who are hardly representative of the bulk of the traveling public and might well be thought to have a vested interest in promoting air travel. It would be lovely if we could just take a pill when we board the aircraft and arrive at our destination with no jet lag. Unfortunately, at least for now, this simply isnt possible. Preventing jet lag, or at least reducing jet lag symptoms considerably, is not difficult and involves a little bit of planning in advance of your trip and following a careful, but simple, plan before, during and after your flight. The one thing is doesn’t involve is a so-called magic jet lag pill.

Is Laser Hair Removal The Best Option For Your Bikini Line?

Mardi, septembre 18th, 2007

By Sarah Wright One of the most common areas to have laser hair removal performed is on the bikini line. This is often a difficult area to deal with using just a regular razor, so with the lure of permanent laser hair removal, it stands to reason that this is a good area to have the treatment performed. But does it work? I would have to say that laser hair removal is one of the most effective treatments for hair removal when it comes to the bikini line. However, it isnt the cheapest option. It will usually cost somewhere between $250 and $500 for most people, and for permanent hair removal you will need more than one session under the laser. Can it permanently remove hair? There has always been some controversy over whether laser hair removal can really remove hair permanently. The truth is that you may experience some re-growth over 6 months to a year. But because a lot of your hair follicles will have been burnt off by the laser there will be much less hair growing back, if any. Whether its worth the money, is up to you as an individual. Some people would think its a waste of money, some people think its a bargain if it means their bikini line will be perfectly smooth forever. It certainly is one of the most effective ways of removing hair. It also means you wont have to put up with waxing, or shaving (which can often lead to nicks, and stubble growing back within a few days and weeks). Laser hair removal for the bikini line certainly isnt for everyone. But the facts are that its definitely one of the most effective treatments available, and it does, in general, stick by its claims of almost permanent hair removal. I hope this has been able to shred a little light on whether laser hair removal for the bikini line is worth the money for you personally. Good luck!

A Weatherproof Outdoor Rocking Chair is a Necessity

Dimanche, septembre 16th, 2007

By Mike Jerry Don’t buy a cheap substitute; make sure your weatherproof outdoor rocking chair will really stand up to the seasons. If you keep your outdoor rocking chair in your garden or other exposed area, it is important that you get a good weatherproof rocking chair. If you buy a chair that is just weather resistant it will probably only last a year or two before it begins to give in to the weather. A true weatherproof chair will last for several years even if it is constantly being exposed to the elements. You can keep your garden rocker out all year round without worrying about possible damage from the weather. With a weatherproof garden rocking chair you will be able to enjoy those occasional warm winter days without having to drag your furniture out from the garage. Lawn furniture needs to be made durable and weatherproof. But unfortunately many manufacturers worry more about the look of the furniture than how durable it is going to be. Untreated wood is a common material for garden and lawn furniture, but this raw wood will not last long if it is not protected from the weather. Many people buy untreated wooden rocking chairs because they are less expensive than treated wood. Unfortunately, no one ever informs them that their chair will not last long if it is not protected from the weather. An alternative to untreated wood is painted or weather treated wood. This extends the durability of the rocking chair and can make the chair weatherproof. Some people will prime and paint the untreated wood and that will help it last several more years. A water sealant can also be added to untreated wood, but will have to be reapplied every year. A great new option in weatherproofing is rocking chairs made from recycled plastic materials. These chairs are more durable than any wood. They stand up to weather year round without any maintenance. This recycled plastic material is extremely durable and rocking chairs made from it will last many years longer than treated wood. The smooth feel of the recycled plastic is also very appealing. You do not have to worry about getting splinters or slivers in your legs when you are wearing shorts. Plus it is just so much nicer to run your hands along the smooth handrails of a recycled plastic chair as compared to the rough edges of a natural wood chair. Buying an outdoor rocking chair takes time and you should do research before making such a large purchase. Although cost is always important to consumers, so should the rocking chairs ability to last through the winter. Buying an inexpensive chair that will only last one year is not going to save you money in the long run. Instead, invest in a good quality weatherproof chair that will last you for many years to come. The additional up front cost will soon be offset. Recycled plastic may be a little more expensive but it will pay off in the long run. Consider buying a recycled plastic material rocking chair if you really want to make your purchase last! More and more people are discovering outdoor rocking chairs as a great way to relax and enjoy those quiet moments!

White Sun - The Five Thunders

Samedi, septembre 15th, 2007

By Teow Aun Chew Amitabha Buddha, many aeons ago made the vow that for those who called upon and chant with a sincere heart “Namo Om Mi Tuo Fo,” will be born in Pure Land and if they are not born there, he won’t want to become a Buddha. But he still becomes a Buddha even though numerous beings called upon him and were not born in the Pure Land. The Underworld Bodhisattva “Di Zang Wang Pusa” also made a vow that if the underworld is not empty, he won’t want to be a Bodhisattva, but he still becomes a Bodhisattva. Vows are very important, it makes one consciously committed to his words that he will do such an action. In the temple of Tao of Heaven, it is similarly applied to the receipient of The Heavenly Tao. There are Ten Vows and the last vow is “Let God punish me with thunders.” The meaning is as follows: The vow “Let God punish me with thunders” means to be hit by the five thunders. Thunder is pure ‘yang,’ the most righteous of all ‘yang.’ Its strength is like diamond. The five thunders are the thunder of Heaven, the thunder of Earth, the thunder of ‘yang,’ the thunder of ‘yin,’ and the thunder of the Dharma. When the thunder of Heaven strikes, overcast sky becomes clear immediately. When the thunder of Earth strikes, all lives and matters sprout. When the thunder of ‘yang’ strikes, all evil spirits vanish. When the thunder of ‘yin’ strikes, all demons and monsters hide. When the thunder of Dharma strikes, Tao of Heaven is spread rapidly. “Thunder” is not necessarily restricted to that of the weather. The five thunders also exist in one’s body. The thunder of Heaven strikes when one feels shameful and angry as his face and ears turn red. The thunder of Earth strikes when one hesitates to do unrighteous acts. The thunder of ‘yang’ strikes when one feels anxious as he encroaches propriety. The thunder of ‘yin’ strikes when one becomes nervous as he conspires. The thunder of Dharma strikes when one becomes troubled, even in his dreams, as his mind becomes astray. Whenever the desire and the conscience confront each other, it is the time the five thunders strike. If one repents at that moment, respects the thunder of Heaven to open his door to Heaven, becomes alert to the thunder of Earth to close the door to the Underworld. He holds the thunder of ‘yang’ to retain his true spirit, refrains the thunder of ‘yin’ to intensify his true vitality. He then follows the thunder of Dharma to calm the soul, his three treasures of the body (soul, spirit and vitality) gather and his ‘Qi’ (spirit) of the five fundamental elements (wood, water, fire, metal and earth) coagulate. Then it is not difficult for him to restore his original True Self and enjoy the everlasting purity and tranquillity. Three thousand years ago, Saints like Duke Zhou had felt the power of wind and thunder, and Confucius had written down the mystic changes of wind and thunder. If one does not repent when his five thunders strike, his vitality would be expended, his ‘Qi’ of the five fundamental elements dispersed, his soul worn down, his ‘Po’ ( spirit of sense) lost, and his ‘Hun’ (spirit of consciousness) shaken. He would look exhausted, become sick, and wouldn’t know the cause of his death. The punishment of thunder needs not come from thunders that can be seen or heard. The receipients of The Heavenly Tao are given Three Heavenly Treasures during the ceremony. The Three Heavenly Treasures are firstly “The Heavenly Eye or The Divine Eye or The Third Eye,” secondly “The Divine Mantra” and thirdly “The Holy Seal.” These Three Heavenly Treasures cannot be simply disclosed to anyone, anywhere, anytime, and it can be only revealed in the Temple of Tao of Heaven under certain conditions set by Heaven. If anyone reveals it simply on purpose, then the vow “Let God punish me with thunders” applies, it is the thunder that cannot be seen or heard. Author: T.A Chew T.A Chew upon receipt of The Heavenly Tao on the Chinese calendar 15th, 3rd month 1995, initially cannot understand why such a precious treasure from Heaven cannot be revealed. Later he realized that treasures are treasures and not everyone can have it.
