Light The World by Cicily Sunny

John 5:24 –“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.”
John 5:28, 29 – “Do not marvel at this; for an hour is coming , in which all who are in the tombs will hear His voice, and will come forth; those who did good deeds to a resurrection of life, those who committed the evil deeds to a resurrection of judgment.” Please note that the 1st part is in English, and the 2nd part is in Malayalam starting at 19:28 mark.
The ordinary minds are not aware of the two resurrections. The Bible is our proper guide in this matter. It clearly distinguishes between a first and a second resurrection. Also there is a Last Judgment. Those who are part of the first resurrection will not have to face the Last Judgment. The timing of the two resurrections, the rule of God on earth, the destiny of Satan, the judgment of the wicked, the saving plan of God etc. are discussed.

The title of my Podcast message will be ‘Light the World’ based on the Bible verse Matthew 5:16, “Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” AMEN!
Jesus said to the disciples, ”Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature,” (Mark 16:15). Without motivation from the heart no one can do this great job. Only after having an encounter with Jesus in 1995 I got the desire to know God more through the Bible and through the writings and messages of other people who have experienced God. I got the motivation to share with others about my experience, the wonders God has done in the lives of people as narrated in the Bible, the hope of eternal bliss with God, the hard fight we have to do with the devil in this world to obtain that eternal heaven, the need to be thorough with the message of God in the Bible, to establish a relationship with God, to prioritize God in our lives, and to spend time in matters regarding God. Just being a Christian does not mean that all these things happen automatically. We have to caution ourselves every minute of our life against our enemy, who is constantly busy in polluting the minds of people until our heart is fully with him and escape will seem very minimum. “Be sober and vigilant. Your opponent the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1st Peter 5:8). The Holy Spirit is in our midst for those who seek Him. Jesus said, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be open to you” (Matthew 7:7). When I seriously asked God for help, He talked to me right away. “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will enter his house and dine with him, and he with me” (Revelation 3:20). When you try to know God more, more will be revealed to you. Listening to Biblical messages may seem boring, but its effect is miraculous. “Thus faith comes from what is heard, and what is herd comes through the word of Christ” (Romans 10:17). According to my convictions, knowing who God is, what God had done in the lives of people in the past, how God is working in the lives of people now, how we can make a good friendship with God, how we can unite with God again physically and spiritually will straighten our spiritual, mental and physical wellbeing forever. The Bible is the perfect source for this. Everything said above is connected to my life also.

Ezekiel 18:20 –“The person who sins will die. The son will not bear the punishment for the father’s iniquity, nor will the father bear the punishment for the son’s iniquity; the righteousness of the righteous will be upon himself; and the wickedness of the wicked will be upon himself.”

Exodus 20:5,6 & Deuteronomy 5: 9,10 – God says about idol worship: You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, visiting the iniquity of the father on the children, on the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing loving kindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.”

These verses seem like contradictory, but when we go deep into it and try to understand it, the meaning will be clear. People have the tendency to blame every problem on some sort of generational curse. This is not biblical. According to the Old Testament Law, God visited iniquities on future generations for the specific sin of idolatry. When Israel turned from idols to serve the Living God, the curse was broken and God blessed them. When a person sins against God, God will double check on three to four generations to make sure if anyone repeats that sin. If that sin is repeated, they will be punished. The four generations will not be aware of the sins of the forefathers. That is why every person should repent about own sins, pray for forgiving the ancestors, follow the commandments of God and lead a clean life always. Personal stories of punishment on children for parents’ iniquities as well as for their own iniquities against parents, due to lack of repentance are shared.

Isaiah 43:4 – “Since you are precious in my sight, since you are honored and I love you, I will give other men in your place and other peoples in exchange for your life.”

This verse shows the loving care of God for those whom God loves. This is particularly said about Jacob and his descendants, that is the Israelites. God promised them His love and care. God has protected the Israelites in many ways except when they worshipped idols and sinned. This promise of God applies to all His loved ones, irrespective of religion and race. Ten incidents from the Bible in terms of God’s protection are included. God will protect those who love Him and follow his commands. Using His angels, God offers His pure selfless love to those who are on the path of salvation by accepting Jesus as the savior. Sometimes God allows trials in our life to purify us, to test our faith and to strengthen us in our faith. In the New Testament Jesus has promised more spiritual protection against the enemies of our soul than physical protection. This spiritual protection is based on the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in us. If the Holy Spirit dwells in us, we are spiritually safe. We just have to draw near to God and trust in His protection. Even if we are physically hurt, we will be spiritually protected. As long as we reach our heavenly home, we can put away other worries.

Luke 19:5 - When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house.”

Lots of people think that they should be perfect human beings to seek Jesus. Th reality is that Jesus came seeking sinners. I started thinking of a perfect life only after meeting Jesus.
Why we should meet Jesus, the qualifications for meeting Jesus, the outcomes of meeting Jesus, the guaranteed transformation that takes place in us etc. are discussed.
