TRUE CIRCUMCISION

"Just because you live like a Jew [A CHRISTIAN] and are circumcised [HAVE JOINED THE ENCOUNTER] doesn't make you a real Jew [A DISCIPLE OF CHRIST]. To be a real Jew [A DISCIPLE OF CHRIST] you must obey the Law [GOD'S COMMANDS]. True circumcision [ENCOUNTER] is something that happens deep in your heart, not something done to your body. And besides, you should want praise from God and not from humans." -Romans 2:28-29

The question is, "HAVE YOU [really] EXPERIENCED TRUE CIRCUMCISION [encounter with JESUS]?

Hmm. Kay remember:

"Being circumcised [HAVING JOINED THE ENCOUNTER] is worthwhile, if you obey the Law [GOD'S COMMANDS]. But if you don't obey the Law [GOD'S COMMANDS], you are no better off than people who are not circumcised [HAVE NOT JOINED THE ENCOUNTER." -Romans 2:25

Unya.. Amen? or Oh men?

P.S.

I don't intend to solicit AMENs here. I just want to remind everyone [including myself] na wala nagstop ang tanan sa encounter. Dili porke't naka-encounter nata, OKAY na! That's a big NO NO. Everyday is an opportunity given by God to grow more in His love and mercy. Daghan pa kaaug buhatonon, usabonon ug tun-ananan. Say no to quitting! Let's remember the silversmith's line [tito Ohmbeng mentioned this kanina], "IT IS FINISHED WHEN I SEE MY FACE REFLECTED ON IT." Human na sa atua ang Ginoo kung nakita na Niya iyang sarili sa atua. So habang wala pa, padayon lang ta sa pagpapolish sa atuang Silversmith, si Jesus!

INCREASE! CLIMB UP!
