Monday, I receive 5 mango and 1 tray of a native egg from a very generous friend. I quickly send him a message after I receive from
@angelbless saying,
"Good morning! A very big thank you! You made my day alive! Nyahahaha... This is the best ever... Thank you! Thank you! May God bless you..."
And he replies saying,
"Don't eat all the mangos!! You need to give your wife."
I'm really laughing at what he said and I told him,
"this is her favorite with boiled egg, tomato, and a bit of salt. Hehehe..."
What does the Bible say about a true friend?
There are friends who are friends when there is a need. But there is a friend saying in English that "Friends in need are friends indeed." The real friend is that a friend who's been there when you need him. There is a friend that even you are lonely, happy, have a problem, and no money etc. are still there beside you. But there is a friend that you are a friend if you have money, or if they need something to you. The bible speaks about that and lets us read Proverbs 14:20.
Proverbs 14:20
King James Version (KJV)
20 - The poor is hated even of his own neighbor: but the rich hath many friends.
The natural is, the beggar when you are a beggar even both beggar is mad at you. But the rich hath many friends. Why? Because what he wants is only money from a friend. A friend who will benefit from you.
True friends will not benefit from you but he still your friend and you will not be neglected. That was written in the Bible. So it's true, especially that friend who has been denied you for hearing the word of God and it was written in 2 Timothy 3:12 saying,
2 Timothy 3:12
King James Version (KJV)
12 - Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
Because if you follow Christ the bad people will persecute you. The friend or the person who does not believe in Christ, you will not be one and that's what Christ says on John 15:19-20 saying,
John 15:19-20
New International Version (NIV)
19 - If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.
20 - Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.
So, If Christ was persecuted if we were servants of Christ, we would be persecuted too.
What is the real significance of man in the world?
The importance of man in the world is this, Ecclesiastes 12:13.
Ecclesiastes 12:13
New International Version (NIV)
13 - Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind.
A man has a reason why God made us. Why we become people, why we exist, what our lives mean. The Bible says, "This is the end of all things: all is heard: fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. Like the chair. The duty of the chair is to be a seat. The duty of the dress is to protect your body. When dirty, laundry it and when it dries wearing it again. When you always do that the dress becomes outdated until it becomes a rag.
We humans, have a duty to God. We obey his commands because it is the whole duty of man, the Bible says.
...That is our value in the world when we obey God's commands so that we can go to heaven. Other than the future we are no longer in the world and we can live with God in heaven.
Remember, one of the important Verse form the Bible saying,
Proverbs 22:24-25
King James Version (KJV)
24 - Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go:
25 - Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.
