hahaha wala akong magawa… tsk panu ba yan, tatlong buwan pa kong mabubulok dito sa kalalaba. hmmm… sa saturday, gateway with barkada! wuhooo… sa wakas, makakalabas din ako, although i have to stick with window shopping kasi arcade, pagkain at pamasahe lang ang gagastusan ko. bwahahahaaa… i’m not yet insane to go into a major shopping galore in gateway. unless i get to be princess of brunei.
tomorrow is Chynna’s birthday! ok! Happy Birthday! yeheesss, dalaga naaa!
ahahahaaa… believe it or not, i just read the Bible. now, that’s new. i even took notes. that’s newer. and i realized a lot of things. haha, yan newest.
nasa Genesis palang naman ako… it was enlightening reading the Bible. enlightening sa mga aspects irregardles of morality issues. ayoko kasi maging super conservative. ever since i took a semester off to chill at home, i found it necessary to get closer to God. ngayon ko lang sha napakinggan ng maigi. i don’t want this to sound cheesy with my life changing testimonies so i won’t delve into that any further.
whew. i realized na dalawa pala ang puno sa gitna ng Eden. the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. both are forbidded for man to eat. unfortunately nga diba, kumain si Adan at Eba sa Puno ng Karunungan ng Tama at Mali and hereditarily speaking we now possess Knowledge of Good and Evil… thus, the gift of descernment.
After getting banished from the garden, God sent out Cherubims with flaming swords to guard the remaining tree untouched by men, the Tree of Life. So, imagine if the serpent duped Eve to eat on the Tree of Life instead? Lahat tayo immortal!!! hmmm… now think about it.
sa Genesis din natin makikita na talagang superior ang men over women. having Eve banished from Eden explains why childbearing is painful. kaparusahan nya iyon sa pagsuway kay Lord. And man was cursed to toil over the ground for food. si Adan ang nagpangalan kay Eba.
the great flood happened because God got angry that his men are abusing the tradition of faithful marriage. marrying one woman after another and another and another. it wasn’t clear kung ang tinutukoy dito ay angel-man relationship pero in the later verses binanggit na ang mga offspring nila ay mga extraordinary people. yung tipong higante, mala hercules ang lakas and blah…
bago magpalabas si Noah ng dove, nagpalabas muna suya ng Raven. and in fact, mas mahirap yung ginawa ng raven kumpara sa dove, kasi pinalipad sya ng pinalipad, pabalik balik hanggang mag dry up yung land. at malamang lamang, nung napagod na sya tsaka na pinalabas yung Dove, na nagbalik ng olive leaf kay noah, pero after nun iniwan na rin sha nung dove at di na bumalik.
after the flood, God made a covenant to Noah never to destroy the whole Earth and his creatures again. He also promised that no flood will ever again destroy the whole world. implication na kung magugunaw man ang mundo, it’s definitely not out of water. e diba scary yun? panu kung fire? wind? earth?
the Rainbow – serves as a sign to this covenant. now that’s explains it.
i’m thinking, maybe there’s no END OF THE WORLD. it doesn’t exist kasi nagpromise si Lord. if people think that the 2nd coming of Christ will be the destruction of humankind, they’re wrong. according to Revelations, when Jesus comes back, he will take with him those who stayed faithful to him to heaven. and yung mga hindi, maiiwan dito sa earth under the reign of Satan for a whole lot of millenuims. when i reach revelations ma-eexplain ko na to pero dear, genesis muna ha. =)
eto naman ang na isip kong reason kung bakit iba iba ang language ng mga tao sa iba’t ibang regions ng mundo.
the tower of babel
during this time, men share a common speech. they tried to built a city with a brick tower in it that would reach the heavens so that they can make a name for themselves and not be scattered over the face of the earth. nagalit si Lord, abot langit na tore? heh! kung ito ang dulot ng pagkakaroon nila ng isang similar language, then i might as well confuse their tongues.
indeed, dahil kinonfuse ni Lord and kanilang language, hindi na sila nagkaintindihan. di nabuo ang city at ang tower at nag sama sama ang lahat ng magkakapareho ang language and nagsikalat sa buong mundo!!
ahahahaaa… i think i should go back to sunday school once again. i missed a hell lot.
eheheheee… ^^;
