Ride On!!!

English Version

17 Maret 2012, saya pergi menghadiri acara perkawinan seorang teman di sebuah kota di Malaysia. Karena tidak ada rute pesawat langsung menuju ke kota tersebut, saya harus turun di singapura dan melanjutkan perjalanan via darat.

Dalam waktu yg relatif singkat, saya sudah menyebrangi 3 negara. Benar2 mengagumkan jaman sekarang ini. Transportasi dibuat semakin mudah, semakin cepat, dan semakin murah. Tidak heran banyak orang beramai-ramai ingin berpergian kesana kemari.

Bagaimana dengan keKristenan ? Dari dulu sampai sekarang, transportasi ke surga sangat mudah dan gratis.

"Kata Yesus kepadanya: "Akulah jalan dan kebenaran dan hidup. Tidak ada seorang pun yang datang kepada Bapa, kalau tidak melalui Aku" (Yohanes 14:6)

"Dan keselamatan tidak ada di dalam siapa pun juga selain di dalam Dia, sebab di bawah kolong langit ini tidak ada nama lain yang diberikan kepada manusia yang olehnya kita dapat diselamatkan" (Kisah Para Rasul 4:12)

".....supaya setiap orang yang percaya kepada-Nya tidak binasa melainkan beroleh hidup yang kekal" (Yohanes 3:16)

Seperti sebuah ungkapan "Hanya orang Indonesia yang dapat membawa anda ke Indonesia", demikian jugalah hanya Yesus yang empunya kerajaan sorga, yang dapat membawa kita kesana. Tidak ada cara lain atau melalui orang lain. Caranya ? Sangat mudah !!! Hanya dengan percaya kepadaNya.

Sayangnya masih banyak orang yg belum mengetahui tentang hal ini. Karena itu, mari kita yang mengaku sebagai anak-anaknya, agar lebih giat lagi dalam memberitakan perjalanan keselamatan ini.

Tuhan memberkati

I had a wedding to attend last 17th March 2012 in a town in Malaysia. Since there isn’t any direct flight to that town, I need to set off to Singapore first, and continue the trip via land-transportation.

In a relatively short time, I have crossed 3 countries. These days, transportation is really awesome, since it is a lot cheaper, faster, and easier than before. No wonder people are vies to travel across the countries.

Then, what about the Christianity? From the beginning till today, transportation to heaven is always very easy…and the most important thing, it is free.

"Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6)

"Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12)

"......that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16)

Like the saying “Only the right homeowners who can take us to their home-tour”, it goes the same with Jesus who is the true owner of kingdom of heaven’s and the only one who can take us there. There is neither other way nor through people, we can achieve the salvation. Then how we can reach the kingdom of heaven ? It is as simple and easy answer, such as none other than believing in Him.

Unfortunately, there are still so many people who do not know about this good news. Therefore, we, who are claiming as His children, need to spread the words of God more actively to the world. More than ever, we need spread the way of salvation in Jesus more vigorously so that more people can be saved through Him.

God bless.
