Achievement or Salvation, We Minister to

Sharing Jesus is part of our responsibility as Christians and is called evangelism. See Acts 16: 31 ESV addressing

"And they said, "Belief in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household." Acts 16: 31 ESV. 

We are required to share with people to know Jesus in person with compassion and full of love, then pray afterward. We cannot leave our responsibility; this is God's command in Ezekiel 3: 18 and Matthew 28: 19-20. As followers of Christ, you must do God's command and you don't need to study a theology program by pursuing a pastor. We don't need pastors and we do need Jesus. People need to know Jesus that is our JOB to SHARE and MAKE people ACCEPT Jesus Christ.

So why people should know Jesus? 

Yes, we live in a diversity of different religions which aren't Christians, and definitely do not know who Jesus is. We do know Christians who as well do not know Jesus. As followers of Christ, we take charge of ministering to people to know Jesus. This is super important. 

You can start little things like you are studying at a school or working at an office, you just need to do what usually you do, like pray publicly, read Bible, and share kindness with your friends and colleagues. Your friends and colleagues can feel God's presence and see the Lord through what you are doing. If someone wants to know or may debate your belief, just talk the truth and start with compassion. You don't need to put in hate which God really hates it. You must love them, for whatever you have. Keep your faith and trust God's work and His promises. If someone leaves you and doesn't want to continue or doesn't want to meet with you, that's okay and just pray for them to accept Jesus one day. Don't push them over. All must come to nature and self-awareness. 

We really WANT more new Christians who BELIEVE in Jesus Christ, more. But don't be too arrogant. We need to be patient and calm down because Jesus really said "later" in John 13: 7. So, be patient to share Jesus with people to know who Jesus Christ is and the gospel. Pray, pray, and pray, the only that you have now. Surrendering is also most important because He will fight and work the best. If someone does not believe in Jesus anymore that's okay and keep praying for them, one day, they will accept Jesus. Making people accept Jesus isn't an achievement but is about salvation. We do not win a trophy or a gold medal, but we need people for salvation, which only Jesus is the way and the only salvation. No one gets salvation except accept Jesus Christ is the Lord and Savior. 

As followers of Christ, OUR job is to SHARE, MINISTER, GO and MAKE people KNOW Jesus as we live on missions. Start with your testimony, it all began to start from full of hearts, joy, and love. Believe in God's works and God will strengthen you in Philippians 4: 13 and Isaiah 41: 10 by suffering that you might face while you are on a mission sharing Jesus. 

Confront less and pray more on a mission sharing Jesus. Talk the truth and fully believe in God's works the best! Work in compassion and full of love. Work in the faith of Christ.

Good luck with your mission of sharing Jesus publicly! I will pray for you.

The Idea of Feminism In the Church

A veiled woman lighting up a candle in the Orthodox Church, source: Adobe Stock Roman Catholic Pope Francis appeared a 60-minute on CBS's live-streaming interview with a female reporter, Norah O'Donnell. She was curious in a question towards on him,  " I'm curious, for a little girl growing up Catholic today, will she ever have the opportunity to be a deacon and participate as a clergy member in the church ?" Pope Francis simply, saying, " No ." O'Donnell seemed to trying to push on him about her idea of the progressive and reformation in the Catholic Church. But, thanks God, Pope was strong defending his faith.  This is a 60-minute interview has opened that in fact the pressure of the church reformation has been increasingly happening today. We heard that some churches trying to allow its LGBTQ movement within church life, like the Unitarian church. And, I think some churches have accepted the female ordination, but usually it is Protestant church b

Women, Modesty, and Veiling

(Veiling of women in different era, source: Diaqnoz.Az) " I am Orthodox and I do not agree with veiling " on a comment that recorded on Instagram while posting a reel of female Orthodox veiled at a church and monastery.  I am Orthodox and I do agree with veiling . So, why? The first place, that people may think that we are "sexist" or "pervert" as controlling on female clothing appearances. That's possible because we live in a modern era which is the female rights are more honourable and important in its society. Many girls are independent raised well and having same chances of working at secularism typically careers. But, as Orthodox Christians, who we know that we are about 2.000 years living to equip our Christ looks like in the modern era, which that has been fallen down, especially rising up feminist's movement. The feminism is mainly different from what women have fought for equality gender as surely their aim is to dominate and create the &q

The Pascha, Life Bond, and SO SPECIAL! Orthodox Christianity!

Holy Fire in Jerusalem We typically celebrate the Easter - however that the Orthodox people generally saying that's Pascha - but I felt like that was so special that I celebrated the Pascha in a different Christianity tradition which was unfamiliar to myself, being to live in the country who well-known about Western Christianity. We celebrate the Pascha on a different calendar, it is Julian Calendar so many people wonder that why we are being late celebrate the Pascha and even the Christmas, a week late (between 12-13 days on Julian and Gregorian calendars) from the Western Christians. But, in certain times in history, we celebrate on the same date like 2017 we celebrate the Pascha together with Roman Catholics and it will be happening next year! The Eastern Orthodox is the holy and first church to just celebrated a blessed holy week in last week! Unfortunately, I was unlucky in that schedule as I had a five-day training during the holy week schedule, that caused I had to miss mult
