First..
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIS!! hope u'll lotsa fun ;)
S'pore idol sux n rux as well. the results were horrible. i din't xpect jerry n taufik to get in. but well..tings are unpredictable in life though i still hope beverly gets in. her voice rux big time. o..n jerry rux too. not his voice but wat he said. before he sang, he said "...
the never-ending love God has for me" n the third statement he gave aft he was chosen "
i would never haf done it without my Saviour, Jesus Christ." whoa manz..i really admire tis guy. he is sort of using his appearance on tv to spread God's love though in an undirect way. far out..tat shld wat we, as children of God, do. to use watever we have or are in for His glory.
o yeah..the verse on the bind n loose ting, i asked Joshua n he gave an ans tat cleared all my questions. we have to look at the whole verse
matt 16:19 "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." In New Living Translation, the verse states
"And I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you lock on earth will be locked in heaven, and whatever you open on earth will be opened in heaven." Now if we look at
isaiah 22:22 (NIV) "I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David; what he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open."
from all these verses, the
key in the verse is the key to salvation, which is serious. This holds a huge responsibilty to the person having tat
key in opening to a person. when tat
key opens to a person, heaven will be open to him as well. It is a matter of life n death. in other words, we as Christians are holding tat
key which when we pass it to someone, tat someone is saved. thus, we can decide whether to spread tat
key, which may be the gospel or something else, with someone else. watever is the decision, it matters only whether the person will be saved or not; whether the person will have eternal life or not. n tis is a huge responsibilty as we haf tat "authority" to decide someone's life aft death.
yeap..tat's all i gotta say. if u luv God, do wat is pleasing to Him n not the other way round. k..nitey nitez.
