The Good News

  T he only good news that we ought to know and remember is that Jesus Christ had already won the war against sin and death.  He has made it possible for us to join Him in the afterlife.  All we need now to do is accept Him as He is.  God is alive today and it may be sometimes be difficult to see this.  The world and its demonic nature has still made it look like that only worldly things matter and that the ultimate goal of each one is to achieve their own personal happiness.  This is the biggest lie of all, that we should do all to make us happy. Individual happiness at the expense of someone else is the biggest deception of all. The truth is, our lives are never really about us.  It is ultimately about God and about others.  It is about how you can provide and give joy even at our own expense. This is the model of ultimate and genuine love that Jesus shown us at the cross. "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends." - John 15:13 "But

Everyone will miss the Guardians of the Galaxy

 

When the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 1 was being introduced into the MCU, I was skeptical about it and I have to be honest, one of its doubters as I have never heard of this group before.  I used to collect a lot of comic books growing up.  Psi Force was one of my faves before and yeah I didn't catch a glimpse of this team, not once.  

So when the rising MCU decided to bring this group in to live action  I was intrigued and curious about how they will incorporate them into the MCU.

The movie came, I watched and I surprisingly loved it.  It wasn't the best group of heroes and not necessarily the strongest bunch but they were a breath of fresh air and I kinda relate to them specially their broken, imperfect selves.  I can relate to Peter Quill's early loss of his mother and a distant, seemingly unloving paternal figure as well.  Also, like Star Lord, I listen to music to somehow take care of the pain.

So when they said that it's all going to end with GOTG Vol 3, I knew I just had to see it and I wasn't disappointed.  Rocket's story was tearjerking.  Mantiss and Drax's scenes were funny.  I liked how James Gunn provided all of them with some sort of closure in the end.

They had a proper villain. No gray areas this time.  Just pure, narcissistic lunacy to his very core.  The High Evolutionary was the evil creator.  The unloving God of Counter Earth and many other intergalactic races in the MCU.  

This got me thinking about how blessed we are that we have a loving God in Jesus Christ.  Who is willing to take on the all the pain for his creations rather than give pain for his own satisfaction.  Just think how dark it would have been if your creator was as heartless as the High Evolutionary where imperfect creations destiny is the fiery incinerator. 

If you haven't seen the Guardians of the Galaxy, I highly recommend that you do and I guarantee that you'll enjoy it. Watch all three.

Upon Friar Review: Glowing reviews for The Chosen

And I am very glad that they have reviewed one of my favourite shows today: The Chosen.  I also like the fact that I share most of their point-of-view about the shows and they teach me as well about it.  So below are the Youtube links as they review Seasons 1 and 2 of The Chosen.   Also, I've linked the headings below to related Amazon items that may interest you.

The 12 Apostles

  In these days he went out to the mountain to pray; and all night he continued in prayer to God. And when it was day, he called his disciples, and chose from them twelve, whom he named apostles; Simon, whom he named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot, and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

The Book of Job: Synopsis and Lessons

  The Book of Job is a part of the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. It is considered one of the most profound and challenging books in the Bible. The central character is Job, a wealthy and righteous man living in the land of Uz. He is known for his piety and devotion to God. Job's life takes a dramatic and tragic turn when Satan challenges his faithfulness. Satan suggests to God that Job's righteousness is a result of his prosperity and that he would curse God if he were to face suffering. God allows Satan to test Job's faith, but with the condition that he does not harm Job physically. Job's suffering begins with the loss of his wealth, his children, and his health. He is afflicted with painful sores and is left in misery. Throughout his ordeal, Job's friends, Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar, come to visit him and attempt to provide explanations for his suffering. They suggest that Job must have sinned grievously to warrant such punishment, u
