I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:6

In today's verse, we see Jesus making it very certain that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. To those who are trying various rituals and methods to go to heaven, Jesus is saying, "I am the Way." To those who access various intellectual sources such as books, the internet, etc., in order to find truth, Jesus is saying, "I am the Truth." In the middle of dryness and deadness, when we are really desperate for something fresh and living, Jesus is saying, "I am the Life."  Now, for us to find the Way to reach eternal Life, we must know the Truth. Only Truth can set us free, as Jesus said, "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

நானே வழியும் சத்தியமும் ஜீவனுமாயிருக்கிறேன், என்னாலேயல்லாமல் ஒருவனும் பிதாவினிடத்தில் வரான். யோவான் 14:6

இன்றைய வசனத்தில், இயேசுவே வழி, சத்தியம், ஜீவன் என்பதை மிக உறுதியாகச் சொல்வதைக் காண்கிறோம். பரலோகம் செல்ல பல்வேறு சடங்குகள் மற்றும் வழிமுறைகளை முயற்சி செய்பவர்களுக்கு, இயேசு, "நானே வழி" என்று கூறுகிறார். உண்மையைக் கண்டறிய, புத்தகங்கள், இணையம் போன்ற பல்வேறு அறிவுசார் ஆதாரங்களை தேடுபவர்களிடம், இயேசு, "நானே சத்தியம்" என்று கூறுகிறார். போராட்டத்துடன் ஒன்றும் செய்யமுடியாமையின் மத்தியில், உண்மையிலேயே புதிய வாழ்விற்கு ஆசைப்படும்போது, "நானே ஜீவன்" என்று இயேசு கூறுகிறார். இப்போது, நாம் நித்திய ஜீவனை அடைவதற்கான வழியைக் கண்டுபிடிக்க, நாம் சத்தியத்தை அறிந்திருக்க வேண்டும். "சத்தியத்தையும் அறிவீர்கள், சத்தியம் உங்களை விடுதலையாக்கும்." என்று இயேசு கூறியது போல் சத்தியம் மட்டுமே நமக்கு விடுதலை கொடுக்கும்.

"Blog Y2 086 - Calm Words, Peaceful Hearts"

Image
A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger. Proverbs 15:1. King Solomon gives wise advice on handling anger. A gentle answer can calm a tense situation, while harsh words only make things worse. The word "wrath" here refers to intense anger that can lead to conflict. When we’re insulted or upset, it’s easy to respond with more anger, but this only fuels the fire. Instead, responding calmly and kindly can help defuse the situation. A gentle response shows wisdom, self-control, and care for the other person, reducing tension and preventing further conflict. When faced with anger or insult, how can you respond with gentleness and wisdom to show love and defuse the situation instead of fueling conflict? Romans 12:21 says, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." மெதுவான பிரதியுத்தரம் உக்கிரத்தை மாற்றும்; கடுஞ்சொற்களோ கோபத்தை எழுப்பும். நீதிமொழிகள் 15:1. சாலோமோன் ராஜா கோபத்தை எப்படி கையாள்வது என்பதைப் பற்றிய புத்திசாலித்தனமான ஆலோசன...

"Blog Y2 450 - Fear God, Find Life"

  The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, To turn one away from the snares of death. Proverbs 14:27. This verse highlights the importance of fearing the Lord, showing that reverence for God brings life, protection, and wisdom.

"Call upon Me in the day of trouble" - The Lord.

Image
Many  are  the afflictions of the righteous,  But the  Lord  delivers him out of them all. Psalm 34:19. E very day, we desire to live a peaceful and joyful life, but some days are rough and tough. Occasionally, we despise those days and wonder why they occur. I have heard many say that after they start following Christ, they face more challenges. The word of God states that in Christ, we may find peace. In this world, we will experience tribulation, but He encourages us to take courage, for He has overcome the world. If we place our trust in Him, He will deliver us from all trials and tribulations and help us overcome. In Psalm 50:15 , King David says, "Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me." நீதிமானுக்கு வரும் துன்பங்கள் அநேகமாயிருக்கும், கர்த்தர் அவைகளெல்லாவற்றிலும் நின்று அவனை விடுவிப்பார். சங்கீதம் 34:19. ஒவ்வொரு நாளும் நாம், அமைதியான மற்றும் மகிழ்ச்சியான வாழ்க்கையை வாழ விரும்புகிறோம், ஆனால் சில நாட்கள் கரடு முரடான...

"Blog Y2 093 - Trust God, let go, live now"

Image
Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. Matthew 6:34. Today's verse reminds us that God is sovereign and in control of our lives, and we can trust in His provision and care for us. It is part of a passage where Jesus Christ teaches His disciples about the importance of focusing on God's kingdom and not being anxious about earthly concerns.

"Jesus Christ, died for our sins"

Image
Have fervent love for one another, for  “love will cover a multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:8 In today's verse, Apostle Peter says that the power of God's love will cover a multitude of sins, showing us how deeply He loves us. God sent His only son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins and save us. The love of Christ is unconditional. King David says that as far as the East is from the West, our Heavenly Father has removed our sins from us. Surely, we should forgive others' mistakes in the same way God has forgiven our sins. God expects us to continue showing deep love for one another.  Apostle Paul says in Romans 12:10 ,  "Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another." ஒருவரிலொருவர் ஊக்கமான அன்புள்ளவர்களாயிருங்கள்; அன்பு திரளான பாவங்களை மூடும்.  I பேதுரு 4:8 இன்றைய வசனத்தில், அப்போஸ்தலனாகிய பேதுரு, தேவனுடைய அன்பின் வல்லமை பல பாவங்களை மறைக்கும் என்று கூறி, அவர் நம்மை எவ்வளவு ஆழமாக நேசிக்கிறார் என்பதைக் காட்டுகிறார்...

"We are so precious in God's sight"

Image
Since you were precious in My sight,  You have been honored. Isaiah 43:4 This verse is a wonderful promise. God created everyone of us beautifully in His own image to praise Him.  But many hate and curse themselves when they go through trials and tribulations. Jesus came to this world to save us from all hatred and rejection by giving His own life on the cross to make us more precious. We need to be thankful to Him as we are fearfully and wonderfully made. We are so precious in God's sight.  In 1 Peter 2:9 we read, "But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light." நீ என் பார்வைக்கு அருமையானபடியினால் கனம்பெற்றாய்.  ஏசாயா 43:4 இந்த வசனம் ஒரு அற்புதமான வாக்குறுதி.  கடவுள்  த ம்மைப் புகழ்வதற்காகவே நம் ஒவ்வொருவரையும் தம் சாயலில் அழகாகப் படைத்தார்.  ஆனால் பலர் சோதனைகள் மற்றும் இன்னல்கள் வரும் பொழுது தங்களைத் தாங்களே வெ...
