The Aeonian Within

The quest for the meaning of our existence had kindled notions about our purpose here on earth. Ranging from seemingly enlightening to utterly ridiculous, the gimcrack discourses of sanctimonious posers surpasses the most preposterous.

But there's this passage from the Bible that really made sense. Credible with its authority and astonishingly edifying in its concision.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is THE WHOLE DUTY OF MAN.

Fear God, keep His commandments, this is the whole duty of man.

The question now is, what are the commandments of God? Should we eat crackers, give tithes, put beads between our thumbs and index fingers while murmuring senseless repetitions, prop up mannequins on our shoulders and parade it through crammed streets? Should we adhere to the Ten Commandments God gave to Moses on Mount Sinai? It is evidently very hard to tell with all those various religious teachings out there.

Spend your God-given time to scrutinize. Pray for God's guidance. Read the Bible. Search for The Truth, not Scriptural excerpts to support your own belief. Attend religious services, observe and ask questions, compare their teachings with the Gospel. Think through their teachings first before joining their fold. And, while you're at it, include The Members Church of God International to your list. Attend their services, Bible Expositions and Mass Indoctrinations. Watch Ang Dating Daan on UNTV37.

To devote your life to something impermanent is nothing short of idiotic. All tangible things will end. They will wear out, grow old and fade away with your physique, worldly heartaches and happiness, but OUR SOULS WILL EXIST ETERNALLY.

What am I doing for my soul's security? A question that we need to ask ourselves.

We are perpetual beings contained in finite vessels. Vessels that will wither, die and eventually turn into dust. We only have two destinations, ETERNAL LIFE or ETERNAL DAMNATION. The choice is ours.


2 Corinthians 4:16-18 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
