Mathew 5:13-48 - Meditation by Kevin Samuel Premkumar

-
Today I read Matthew 5: 13-48, the remaining of the Sermon on the Mount. 

It is inspiring that all the ideas Jesus preached had not be shared or expressed in any way by the olden prophets and teachers of religious law. 

The words Jesus preached were words of wisdom from God. 

For he reformed the world along with the standards of the law to make sure grace and salvation was poured out in abundance for all. 

He told us that it is a sin for us to hate our neighbor, for the Scriptures say, "Thou shall not murder," and the origin of murder is anger, and the origin of anger is hate.

Resurrection Power of Christ in Us!

This is a secret testimony known only to Wife & her parents...  till now! I told God that I'll share this testimony when I hear about the availability of resurrection power within us for executing God's will in our earthly life in any sermon from among our local body of Christ.  Today I heard such sermon through Pastor Senthil Krishnan & so here is the testimony I promised to God: :-) Doctors set the timeline for my fissure surgery in 2014.  "You can't continue the external medications any longer. Your case now falls under chronic sickness," they said & concluded, "Just a small surgery. Nothing to worry." It's the same surgery my Mom-i-l underwent last year.  But I refused Doctors' advice & held-on to Christ for healing. Why? How? I don't know for sure.  It just sounded more meaningful to my heart to hold-on to Christ because it was clear to me that my screwed-up health situation was due to my sins & self-indulgenc

Mathew 4 - Meditation by Kevin Samuel Premkumar

29 Apr 2019: Good morning, today's Bible passage is taken from Matthew 4:1-11. 😝Am I talking like a pastor? 😄😄 Today I decided to read a small but significant passage. It is about the temptation of Jesus. In the Bible it says that Jesus was led into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit and ate nothing for 40 days and 40 nights. Though this seems a bit ritualistic, Jesus, the son of God was fasting while praying, and so it is fine. Also, our God is not a ritualistic God; neither is his Son. When I read the phrase '40 days and 40 nights', I made reference to Noah and Moses: Noah was in the ark with his family and the animals while it rained for 40 DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS; Moses saw God's glory on Mount Sinai and stayed there for 40 DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS. I don't know whether there is any connection between Noah, Moses and Jesus Christ, but I hope I keep this in mind so that maybe in the future if I ever come across something like this it would be useful informa

Shall we first see what bible says about honoring and caring for our parents throughout their lives? Honoring Parents: Exodus 20:12: "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you." Proverbs 23:22: "Listen to your father, who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old." Caring for Parents: 1 Timothy 5:4: "But if a widow has children or grandchildren, these should learn first of all to put their religion into practice by caring for their own family and so repaying their parents and grandparents, for this is pleasing to God." Mark 7:10-13: "For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and, ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’ But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is ‘Corban’ (that is, devoted to God)— then you no longer let them do anything for their father or mother. Thus you nullify t
