Excalibur

The empty barren land stretched for miles, stained by the blotches of fallen kingdoms, covered with the dust of entropy. I walked with heavy armor, my throat parched, my eyes straining to see what was ahead. I was told by many that I would find what I searched for, but I had underestimated the journey. Peering through the windy horizon, the dust blowing into my eyes, I noticed a rock jutting out of the ground ahead. Filled with determination, I pushed harder through the rough terrain, the elements persevering to hold me back from my destiny. I stumbled on, refusing to…

The Current World

What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his soul? Yet today, many have sold their soul for much less, gratification being the payment that will only last a fraction of the timeline of judgment they will soon face. This is the world we are living in. How do we as Christians, strangers in a world heading for destruction, keep walking in the faith without complying to any of the trends and norms that may arise? Do we easily give in without thinking, hoping to fit in, our subconscious minds aiming to make us accepted…

The Ultimate Relationship Guide and the Endless Possibilities of Love

In a world that celebrates the idea of love but refuses to embrace it in all its entirety, will we ever have relationships that have longevity? Toxic traits, broken promises, incompatibility, inconsistency, unsavoury surprises, infidelity, unequal yokes and unrequited love. All these are the fears that one may have, yet they are drowned in the surge of emotions that engulfs us when we are attracted to someone. I've been on a journey, discovering the very basics concepts of love and relationships, only to find that several more questions are added to the list for every answer I obtain. We all know…

Cupcake Christianity

First of all, what you are about to read is extremely opinionated and is not fact. I'm writing what I feel. It's not really up for debate, but you can comment whether you disagree or not. If we compare today's Christianity with the time it began, we cannot ignore the vast difference in theology and way of lifestyle. It is unavoidable. Our theology is not only watered down, but so is our faith. We don't believe as much as the apostles, neither do we act as much them. I feel we don't hold onto the truth with a tight grip and…

Identity

Roughly two years ago, I wrote a blog called IDENTITY CRISIS. A short message explaining why most Christians are no living like Christ. However, recently, I have come across a profound epiphany of identity. By definition, Identity /ʌɪˈdɛntɪti/ noun 1. the fact of being who or what a person or thing is.   The identity is a part of every person, which is inevitably unavoidable. Everyone must have an identity. The problem with our struggle with identity is that it is always attached to something. We secure who we are with our race, our status, our history, and even our heritage. Some…

Truth Finale: Kristian Meets Love

I, Kristian, am the Defender of Truth. Upon many attempts to gain an official encounter with Him, I managed to meet Truth in person. However, it was not like how I had expected. Instead, He seemed to have bluntly ignored me and told me to meet a random stranger. He said Her name was Love, and indeed, I was dejected that Truth drove off, leaving me standing there in the middle of the road. I was rather angry, so after I had emptied the AK47 into the two motorbikes, I climbed into my Pantera and drove off into the night. Don't…

An Impersonation of Truth: Kristian Meets Truth

The figure darted from shadow to shadow in the dimly lit alley. He wore a hood that hid his facial features. He eventually arrived at the door he was hoping to arrive at. He knocked and waited. The peephole slid open. "Who is it?" the voice grunted. "It's Deception." "What do you want?" "I'm looking for Dr. Compromise." "Why?" Deception removed a photo from his trench coat pocket and held it up for the doctor to see. It was a photo of Truth. "I know you're a good surgeon, I need you to make me look like Him." The doctor grunted…

An Impersonation Of Truth

The white 1950 convertible Buick Roadmaster slid into one of the many available spots outside the nightclub. The man climbed out and took a fresh breath of air. He had been the same since He began, traveling with the same car, it never broke down ever since. It was midnight, and the loud pop music that radiated from inside the club seemed to hurt His ears. The man wore a black fedora hat that matched His leather trench coat. He walked with steady steps towards the door where a bouncer firmly stood. The bouncer stared at Him with intimidation, but He…

Singleness

In a world that defines your happiness by a significant other, singleness is often seen as a cursed disease by many. Strange enough, the reality of the world today consists of single people hoping to be married and married people wishing to be single. And if you dare to look beyond the two way glass of illusions, you will find truly happy couples and truly happy single people. When it comes to singleness, some have chosen celibacy for the sake of their purpose and others have embraced singleness temporarily until their purpose aligns them to their future partner. It's no use…
