Wisdom and Stupidity: -

It is such a nice day again to blogging after a few days of enjoying and while the City Madurai is in its full maximum gaiety. Madurai, City as such a pilgrimage and now is in celebrating the marriage fest of Goddess Meenakshi with Lord Sudareshwarar. This is celebrated once an year, and the same type of rituals are repeated every year, as part of the celebrations.
Though the city Madurai used to be in its worst heat, temperature and climate, people around never bother about the biting, torturous heat or their sweat getting evaporated. All boys and girls come out in the playful mood and celebrate this nicely.
There is another place called Paramakudi, about 72 kms from here the City Madurai. Though this place is smaller in size when compared to Madurai, the same replica of this dramatical celebration is continued very nicely. As the city is slightly vast in area one has to run around kms to see all happenings around the city. Whereas Paramakudi is so small only about 2 to 3kms of run is enough. We can see all rituals personally and enjoy the celebrations.
If anyone is missing this please feel free to visit Madurai City which is well connected by Air, Rail and Road throughout the year and particularly by special arrangement during festivals.

Paul and the false Apostles: -

Paul and the false Apostles: -
I wish you would tolerate me, even when I am a bit foolish. Please do! I am jealous for you, just as God is; you are like a pure virgin whom I have promised in marriage to one man only, Christ himself. I am afraid that your minds will be corrupted and that you will abandon your full and pure devotion to Christ-in the same way that eve was deceived by the snake’s clever lies. For you gladly tolerate anyone who comes to you and preaches a different Jesus, not the one we preached; and you accept a sprit and a gospel completely different from the Sprit and the gospel you received from us.
I do not think that I am the least bit inferior to those very special so-called “apostles” of yours! Perhaps I am amateur in speaking, but certainly not in knowledge; we have made this clear to you at all times and in all conditions.
I did not charge you a thing when I when I preached the Good News of God to you; I humbled myself in order to make you important. Was that wrong of me? While I was working among you, I was paid by other churches; I was robbing them, so to speak, in order to help you. And during the time I was with you, I did not bother you for help when I needed money; the brothers who came from Macedonia brought me everything I needed. As in the past, so in the future: I will never be a burden to you! By Christ’s truth in me, I promise that this boast of mine will not be silenced anywhere in all Achaia. Do I say this because I don’t love you? God knows I love you!
I will go on doing what I am doing now, in order to keep those other “apostles” from having any reason for boasting and saying that they work in the same way what we do. Those men are not true apostles-they are false apostles, who lie about their work and disguise themselves to look like real apostles of Christ. Well no wonder! Even Satan in disguise himself to look like an angel of light! So it is no great thing if his servants disguise themselves to look like servants of righteousness. In the end they will get exactly what their actions deserve.

Contd to thinking on the lines as the nature is

The thinking that we are to die does not sound so good to listen, but we are bound that naked truth, and as such on the day we are born, we are to die also. This is for sure. Is that not?
