Letter of Love

Many years ago, my loving Mom gave me a letter which she had received from a far-away country of Ever-Shining Light and this is what the letter said:

My Dear son, Moron,


Greetings! I’ve chosen you before you were even born and now I AM calls you to a wonderful yet treacherous journey to your home in the land of Ever-Shining Light. My own beloved Son has gone before and paved the Way for you to this Wonderful and Glorious Land.

I’ve sought you for long for my love for you overwhelms me. In love, and not of your own attributes or achievements, have I called you. Henceforth, you shall be called Norom. Therefore, do not fear nor let your heart be troubled for I’ve begun a good work and I’m faithful to finish it.

So, do not doubt if you will be able to make the journey nor worry about the failures and troubles of your journey. For behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the ages.

I want you to know, how many times, through My messengers, did I send My letter to you. But, many a time, My messengers failed to deliver the letter to you. Many destroyed and stole the letter on the way. Many would not go and so, I sent the lady called Daisy with the letter to you. Bless her heart.

If you will honor My love for you and will to begin the journey, then, will My angels surround and protect you and My presence shall go before you. To help you in your journey, I have provided the Boat to equip, to edify, and to exhort you, in order to make you a perfect man.

In your journey, you will come across robbers, murderers, wolves and foxes but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.

You will find the instructions and guidance in the Manual called The Book, which is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, and for correction. 

See you on the other side of the shore where I will dwell with you and you shall be mine. I will be with you and be your God. I will wipe away every tear from your eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain.

Grace be to you,

Your Loving Father,
Yehowah

Death, Sin and Jesus

Few days back, I found myself sitting next to a dead man and he stunk of sewage. He was in a high state of decomposition and tightly tied up with the ropes of Religion and a cellophane tape of Tradition was stuck over the ropes to ensure no escape.

Since dead do not speak, I had to look closer. A tattoo of a serpent coiled on the letter ‘M’ was sketched on his left arm. I knew whom he belonged to. The back of his shirt collar had the name of the city where he had come from, ‘City of Sin’.

The maggots, fungi, and larvae of pornography, sexual sin, lie, idolatry, murder, hatred, envy, drunkenness, selfish ambitions, sorcery, thefts, hypocrisy, love for money, traitor, etc. crawled and slithered all over him and gnawed at his soul.

Dead do not know that they are dead, so was the case with our dead man. He did not bother about the foul smell emanating from him. Instead, he was laughing and enjoying his status, oblivious of his impending doom. Soon, the day came when he was thrown into the eternal fire to burn forever.

Jesus said, "If the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed." Jn 8: 36
Again He said, "You are of your father the devil. But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me." Jn 8:44a, 45
Again He said, "If you do not believe that I am He (Saviour of the world), you will die in your sins." Jn 8:24b
Again He spoke, "Unless you repent you will all likewise perish." Lk 13:5
