Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.

The Truth About His Name
DID YOU KNOW THESE FACTS?
Death is certain but the Bible speaks about untimely death! Make a personal reflection about this. Very interesting, read until the end of the verse. It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7):
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
Here are some men & women who mocked God:
John Lennon (Singer):
Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said:
"Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain. Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, ... today we are more famous than Him" (1966).
Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.
Tancredo Neves (President of Brazil):
During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency. Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.
Cazuza (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer & poet):
During a show in Canecio (Rio de Janeiro), while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air & said: "God, that's for you."
He died at the age of 32 of AIDS in a horrible manner.
The man who built the Titanic
After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be. With an ironic tone he said: "Not even God can sink it"
The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic .
Marilyn Monroe (Actress)
She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus".
A week later, she was found dead in her apartment .
Bon Scott (Singer)
The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang: "Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell". On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.
Campinas (In 2005)
In Campinas, Brazil, a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend. The mother accompanied her to the car & was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends & she said to the daughter holding her hand, who was already seated in the car:
"My daughter, go with God & may He protect you."
She responded: "Only if He (God) travels in the trunk, cause inside here....it's already full "
Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died, the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact. The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none were broken.
Christine Hewitt (Jamaican Journalist & entertainer)
Said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written. In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle .
Many more important people have forgotten that there is no other name that was given so much authority as the name of Jesus. Many have died, but only Jesus died & rose again, & He is still alive.
"If you are embarrassed about me, I will also be embarrassed about you before my Father."

The Truth about Truth
"Sincerity is not a test of truth.
We must not make this mistake: He must be right; he's so sincere.
Because, it is possible to be sincerely wrong.
We can only judge truth by truth and sincerity by sincerity."
"There is nothing wrong with affirmations,
provided what you are affirming is the truth.
If you are broke, for example, the best thing to affirm is, 'I'm broke!'"
"Very few of us are authorities on the truth.
About the closest that any of us can get is what we hope is the truth or what we think is the truth.
That's why the best approach to truth is probably to say, 'It seems to me...'"
- Jim Rohn
