Testimony of JESUS


Gospel According to St.John.5:36-38.
"But I have a testimony greater than John's. The works that the Father has given me to complete, the very works that I am doing , testify on my behalf that the father has sent me. And the Father who sent me has himself testified on my behalf. You have never heard his voice or seen his form and you do not have his word abiding in you , because you do not believe him whom he has sent".

Jesus unequivocally identifies with the Father in Heaven and on Earth which means that Jesus and the Father are One.The Son of God and the Son of Man are the same in Jesus Christ.Because Jesus embodied and embodies all that is God.Our Father is not an immutable and unmoving Father but One who cares for each one of us continuously and unceasingly.But alas, we the mortals and the sinful do not easily give in to Him. Instead we hurry up to things and objects which are of the world.

Fear Not

"Fear Not" is an expression that one finds in the OT and NT and the same words are frequent in the OT. The OT people were more less living a life of fear and death as they were not directly saved by God the Father through His Only Son Jesus Christ. Even in OT God was at work with His people guiding them parenting them and taking care of them. Why do we fear? What do we fear? Human life is full of uncertainties and anxieties and it began with the Fall from Grace. We know that the first seeds of fear were sown on earth when Adam and Eve disobeyed God and sinned. They were afraid to face God and they hid themselves under the cover of a tree.Fear sprouted in the minds of man and woman as he distanced himself from God and started obeying the world or worldly matters.United with God there is no space for fear disunited with God there are spaces for fears as man gets attached with ungodly things. In the NT we see Jesus's redeeming grace, through His Blood he freed man from th...

Overcoming Casual tendencies

Gospel According to John 5.2-5 "Now in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate there is a pool, called in Hebrew Bethzaitha,which has five porticoes.In these lay many invalids-blind,lame and paralyzed.One man was there who was ill for thirty eight years." Here we find a man who has been ill and suffering for so many years.What could be the reason for this?A man suffering alone and uncared by none for so may years!It is really surprising for a man who leads a fast and hectic life.There are two ways to see this incident.One is that we conveniently and negligently ignore our own state.To say the least we are pathetically casual and lazy in certain crucial matters of our life.We just don't care and we pull on.This is a major fault that we are committing in the eyes of God.Some do not care about their health, some about their education, some about their near and dear ones and some about God and church services.This callous way of doing things make us a pathetic human being.We have to find...

Jesus Heals

Gospel According to John 5.6-7 "When Jesu saw him lying there and knew that he had been there a long time, he said to him , "Do you want to be made well?" The sick man answered him ," Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; and while I am making my way , some one else steps down ahead of me." This is a very interesting incident highly reflective of our daily life of struggles and survivals.We have always someone to compete with to survive in this world or to win or to achieve glory.In this irrational, so to say, competition some are obviously left behind and some walks up to the platform of victory.The important point is that we have to compete with another to achieve glory and the glory solely rests with defeating another who is our own brother.Competing with another is not bad to decide upon the will of God; God has granted some with more abilities and merits and some with less abilities so that we choose we different v...
