Justice Saldanha, former Chief Justice of Karnataka High Court has lamented recently in the 'persecuted pastors/Christians' conference organized jointly by All India Christian Council (AICC) and Karnataka Missions Network (KMN) that the atrocities on the Christian Communities are increasing in some states of India, specially in Karnataka State.
He stated that the attacks and violence on Minorities should be treated as terrorist act.
All the participants denounced the statement made by Subramanyam Swamy on Christians and his efforts to sabotage the bill named 'communal violence prevention bill'. They all condemned in one voice the frequent recurrance of vandalism against Christian Institutions specially in Mangalore.
The purpose of this blog is to help the humans to find the One True God and to Reach HIM to live eternally. The contents published in this blog are inspired by the Holy Spirit for the greater Glory of Lord Jesus Christ.

Viswasichalum Illenkilum (Believe it or Not) dated 15th September, 2011
Yesterday's (15-09-2011) 'believe it or not' on Asianet Malayalam channel telecast a miracle happening at a Christian Chapel (Kurisu Palli) in Mavur road in Kozhikode of Kerala. Every Fridays people of different Religions and Faith crowd there which causes even huge traffic blocks. It is a small chapel with a 'Miraculous Cross' that grows gradually....!
The history of the growing rocky Cross: A woman while cutting grass accidentally touched her sickle knife on a 'small cross curved of stone' and seeing blood gushing out of it she was terrified and ran away in fear. Then a person named Fernandez found the cross and placed it devoutly. A Hindu family of that place donated site for the construction of a Chapel over the Cross.
The century old cross has become the centre of miracles. The majority that approach the Kurisummoodu Pally are Hindus and Muslims. candles are lit throughout the day and devotees are free to offer their own prayers and offerings for various needs.
According to the believing, any difficult problem will be solved, however great they are, if candles are lighted and oil is poured in the lamps continuously for seven Fridays with Faith...!

Not Muslim Terrorists behind the Delhi bomb blasts...?
The bomb blasts that killed and injured many innocent people in the Delhi High court compound on September 7th, 2011 is very unfortunate and highly condemnable.
A terror outfit named as HuJi has claimed responsibility for this barbaric act. Many electronic and print medias have reported this incident and termed this 'outfit' as 'Islamic or Muslim' terrorists.
I strongly feel this is completely wrong. How can a Muslim kill and wound innocent children of Allah...? How can a devoted person who believes that God is the Creator of all... destroy any 'creation' or damage anything, created by God...?
Terrorists and criminals have no God, Religion, Love, Compassion, Faith etc. They may bear names similar to that of people belonging to some religions like Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, Buddhism, Jewish etc. But they do not adhere to the faith or follow the tenets of any Religion, nor are they guided by the 'Divine Spirit' of Love and Peace, but the darkness of satan, the evil spirit of hate, cruelty and unrest.
So, people should stop terming inhuman terrorists linking to any Religion. A person bearing the name of a Christian Saint or a Muslim Prophet and indulging in anti-human activities, does not belong to Christianity or Islam and for that reason alone that religion should not be blamed.
When some one involves in such activities and seek support of any community, they should be isolated and banned, because showing any sympathy or support of any kind to the satan is completely against the Will of the Almighty God...!

God will Save America from the horrible Hurricane Irene.
The devastating hurricane that is hitting America is very horrible. About 2.5 million people are ordered to evacuate as hurricane 'Irene' continues to spread fears in coastal cities. All five major airports in New York City area are closed for incoming flights.
New Jersey, New York, Maryland, North Carolina, Virginia and Delaware are the cities that are under the grip of fear most.
We whole-heartedly pray for all those who are affected by this hurricane to the Almighty Lord, Jesus Christ, Who commanded the storm and the sea to be calm and made them obey. He alone is the Master of the Universe and all in it.
At the same time, when we are safe and sound, we must never forget the Merciful Lord, Who has commanded His Angels to protect and safe-guard us. Always be thankful to HIM.
So, dear brethren, do not lose heart, keep your hope in the Good Lord, Who alone can save all the human kind...!

Vandals set fire to Malankara Church Altar in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh
The most unfortunate incident of setting on fire the Altar of the Mother Mary Malankara Catholic Church by unidentified vandals took place on Thursday (Aug 25, 2011)near Krupanand Hall at Ganesh Colony in Picket of Secunderabad . They even burnt copies of the Bible, Cross, hymn books, Mass clothes and other holy ornaments.
A similar incident was witnessed by the same Church some four years ago. Activists of Hindu extremist group called, Bajrang Dal, had then attacked the Priest and damaged the Church property.
Father Felix, the Parish Priest and the elders of the Church registered a complaint with the police and the police has set up a picket, to curb further untoward incidents, though no arrests have been made so far.
People should isolate any miscreant group or sect that disrupts the communal harmony.

After 64th Independence Day, Anna Hazare -2nd Gandhian arrested by 'Indians'...!
Yesterday the 65th Day of Indian Independence was celebrated through out the nook and corners of India, with great pomp and gaiety. But the arrest and detention of 'Anna Hazare' one of the very few Gandhians living in the country, fighting to liberate India from the anti-Indians, who rule it and robe it, on the very next day itself, is very unfortunate.
We saw a lot of untoward and unpleasant incidents, violence, arson and riots that shook Great Briton last week. But not learning anything from another's experience is stubbornness. It is high time for the Indian politicians and the government to learn lessons and act accordingly, before it is too late and goes beyond the control.
The government is elected by the majority of the voters, with the expectation and hope that, the elected representatives would remember always that it is the people that elected them, and they should not loot or sell or betray their mother land, but should strive to take such a wonderful country with great reputation and wealth, to prosperity and growth.
When all the leaders, departments and machinery that are responsible for checking and eliminating corruption are not functioning properly, ultimately the 'majority' 'passive people' who do not have any affiliation with any political parties or persons, lose their patience and resort to violence which may be very difficult to be controlled.
Dear Government, don't be deaf and blind, act swiftly and put a full stop to 'corruption' without any fear or 'soft corner' or 'grudge' and you can regain all your lost glory....!

Unfortunate London Riots spreading to other cities of UK. What is the reason for UK riots?
The riots that spread out in the great London city in England recently is quite unfortunate. It is a cause of concern to understand that it is now spreading to other cities also. Beautiful and elegent London city which is situated in the middle of the whole earth enjoys a high place of reputation for its peace, tranquility and riches of all types.
Even the Government of such a city and a country is facing the ire of the desperate people. It should be an eye-opener to all the Governments of the world. If the steps and policies taken by the political people who rule a state or country, are against the wishes of the majority, such riots, violence, looting and arsen would take place and the people may be forced to the law into their hands...!
Social uprising, racial tension and the policies of the coalition government are all the major reasons of the riots.
Any how a Christian, while seeing all these things happen, should remember the Holy Words of the Lord, said two thousand years ago and Pray to the Lord to make him eligible to 'stand with the head raised to face the Lord who is going to come soon'...! (Mark 13: 8 & 12)
Let us all whole heartedly pray for Peace to prevail and harmonious life of people in all the countries.

Mr A.K Antony and a Gospel Verse, Matt 5:5...!
Shri Arackaparambil Kurien Antony (Mr A.K Anthony), the Defense Minister of India, reminds me of the Holy Bible verse Matt 5:5, "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth"
Any one who is aware of the political happenings of Kerala back to some years, probably a decade, may feel the same as I do. When Mr A.K Antony was the Chief minister of Kerala, he had to face non-stop unreasonable criticism from the opposition (LDF- the Communist parties) and another group(s) of his own party, the Indian National Congress.
Though he was honest and loyal to the highest esteem, he exercised the virtue of being 'meek and patient' many a times and for this reason alone many of his own supporters criticized him for keeping silence on his attackers. But time proved the Holy Verses coming true. Later he is elevated to one of the most important ministries of India and today he is appointed as a core committee member of Congress party by the high command, the highest position in the party, and of course one of the most powerful position in the land.
Where are those who ceaselessly attacked him being in his own party then...?
They are nowhere...! They have lost their positions, power, goodwill, reputation... even the people who supported them blindly...!
So any one can remember this Holy Verse Matt 5:5, "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth"

JUSTICE N. SANTOSH HEGDE, Lokayukta of Karnataka State, must be given special protection and awards
It was a breaking news: the fact findings of Karnataka Lokayuktha, Justice Santhosh Hegde made the corrupt chief minister of Karnataka to resign after a lot of prolonged struggle and high drama...! Justice Santhosh Hegde deserves praise for his courageous action without any fear of the powerful. He must be taken as an example by those who have authority and responsibility to fight against corruption and injustices.
When the politicians who are elected and entrusted the powers to govern and safeguard a state or country, behave in such a way, and betray the interests of the people or state or country, they should be prosecuted without any mercy or partiality and should be granted the stringent punishment more than a citizen, who commits the same crime.
I feel these unclean but mighty corrupt politicians will not forget their anger on sincere and honest people like Mr. Santhosh Hegde, and they will not waste any chance to take revenge on such people, who are always a threat to corrupt politicians...!
Hence the Government of India should give suitable protection to the lives and properties of such people, considering them as national assets, before some untoward incident occurs, as usual...!

Love: what is God's Love, Human Love and devil's love
We all know to some extend what 'Love' is. We have heard many times quoting 'God is Love'. That means love is God. The term 'love' is originally pure and good. Sometimes it is misinterpreted and taken in the wrong sence. Love can never go wrong or commit any crimes, if it is real 'love'...!
Love is of three types.
God' Love: It is real love. It is unconditional and limit less. God's love is full of compassin and kindness. Its depth or height is not measurable. It is always flowing evenly to all human beings, whether good or bad...!
Human Love: It is always selfish. Human love consists of Parental love, children's love, Brothers' love, couple's love, love (attraction) of opposite sex, etc. All these love's are driven by some self benefit...!

Sr Jean, the Mother Teresa of Bangalore can stay in India
It was a good gesture from the Indian home ministry to extend the visa of Rev Sr Jean, who has been serving the lepers, poor, sick and worried people in and around Sumanahalli in Bangalore for the last 29 years. This Sister's visa expired yesterday and she was about to say a farewell to her crying inmates and the less fortunate people with tears, to go back to her Native country England.
Just minutes before her departure, an urgent message was sent to her stating the unconditional extension of her visa to stay and serve the poor of India. This order of the Ministry of Home affairs, New Delhi, was welcomed by all the people without any differences of religion or caste.
May God Bless Rev Sr Jean with a long life and good health and mind to serve the poor.

Body language of Celebrities, Amitabh Bachchan and Rajani Kanth
Humility, simplicity and openness make a person more attractive, lovable and admirable. I am writing this to comment the appreaciable behaviour of two Indian cinema super stars, Mr. Amitabh Bachchan and Mr. Rajani Kanth. Thogh I watch good movies now and then and I am fond of the excellent action of many Indian superstars and actors, I personally like Shri Amitabh and Thiru Rajani for their plainness and humbleness.
Though these two are doubtlessly among the first and best in ranking, they give due respect even to the smallest artist and to the staff of the units. We are often irritated to see the pround behaviour of so many young and upcoming stars, even though they have no or very less number of fans and admirers.
My advise to one and all... The more height you reach or want to reach, you humble yourselves to the lowest level. By doing this your status in the society and in the industry will only increase. Because the Lord Jesus in the Holy Bible says, "Whoever humbles himself will be exalted and whoever exalts himself will be humbled".

Personality Development - What is personality? What is individuality..?
We see and hear a lot about 'personality development training or courses' now-a-days! Many people misinterpret personality with individuality. To improve or develop a person's individual abilities or talents, certain trainings or confidence-building tactics are taught. This is widely commercialized these days.
Even personality has two sides. The external 'appearance of a person' and the 'internal character' side which makes his true sense! A person is the result of many aspects. His behavior or dealings with others is the result of his 'brought up' by parents, teachers, friends, the society etc.
The external appearance is valued much while assessing a candidate for certain jobs and appointments. What is to be weighed more is his 'true colors' that is temporarily hiding in him.
To some extend the individuality can be developed, by trying to remove any 'inferiority complex' or 'unknown fear' that is a hindrance to the growth of a person. In any case I feel "fear of the Lord" is the most important thing to develop in one's life.
It is very unfortunate if the 'Church' gives any importance to 'outward appearance' or the 'complexion' of the devotees. Because The Lord sees not the appearance but the heart of people.
So beware, "appearances are deceptive"...!

The huge treasures found at Thiruvananthapuram Sri Padmanabha Temple
The recent discovery of the huge treasures in five vaults under the Sri Padmanabha Temple in Tranvancore has become the talk of the world, being it the largest discovery of such hidden treasures in the entire world yet. One can know the importance of this as most of the local, National and International electronic and print media giving wide coverage to it since its unearthing. Now everyone's eyes are turned towards the sixth room which is yet to be opened as the Supreme Court of India has given a stay regarding its opening.
When a Christian sees all these, he must immediately recollect the Sayings of the Lord in the Gospel according to St. Matthew, chapter 13, verse 44. 'The Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure that a man finds in a land/field and immediately he hides it and hurries home, sells all that he has and buys the land'...!
Acquiring a place in the Kingdom of God is much higher than posessing all the treasures, the world can offer...! A believer should not lose this great berth in God's Kingdom for mere worldly treasures that cannot grant anyone the entry into God's Kingdom.
We have heard many great kings like Goutama Buddha, who lived in this earth forsaking the riches and pleasures of this world, as they realized that they are all vanity. If a man gains the whole world and loses his soul, what is the use (Matt. 16:26)...?
Dear brethren, be watchful...!

Let us all unite in Prayer for those victims of Yesterday's Mumbay Blasts
The triple bomb blasts in the main centers of Mumbai claiming many lives of innocent civilians, and injuring hundreds, thus creating terror and panic in the ordinary people was quite unfortunate. More than a year of peace, the terror strikes were very condemnable. What do they gain by killing or wounding normal people who live in communal harmony and brotherhood...?
Our sympethy and prayers are with the victims and their grief stircken families. May the Almighty God give rest to the departed souls, heal all those who are wounded and in hospitals, and strengthen and give courage to the affected families.
It gives a lot of happiness to understand many people in and around the spot are rushing with aid through social networking sites like twitter and facebook, without any sort of discrimination.
God Bless ALL and prevent another such anywhere on the face of the earth...!!!

Beware of Satanic worship and false crucifix and medals...!
This is a Serious warning to all the saved followers of God the Almighty...!!!
The term satanic worship is heard here and there. satan is using all his might to capture, deceive and derail the 'children of God'! We must be aware that he is also mighty. But we can rest and relax because our Lord the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob is Almighty...! He is the One who created everything. He is the One who redeems all. He is the One Who sent His dearly beloved SON to save us...! Alleluia...!
The evil spirit knows that we are approaching the end days. he wants to trap as many children of God as possible and join his gang. Poor innocent people who are not vigilant and walk in a distance from the Word of God are prone to be trapped easily.
Now a days, even Crucifixes, Rosaries and Religious Medals of Blessed Mother and Saints are fake and are manufactured and circulated by these loyalists of the cursed angel. When we buy or receive a spiritual item or product carefully examine it and conform whether it is from the true Church or her devotees...!
