Aku baru aja baca blog di atas, dikasi bang yuzuv..katanya lagi debat seru haha aku baca n liak ada macem2 argumen yang aneh2, lucu (bnere ya gak lucu) , trus ada yang sok tahu gtu jg..hehe akirnya tanganku gatel gtu, pengen nulis sesuatu juga..akirnya I came up with this writing..smoga aku juga ga sok tahu.. ^^
Juz imagine this story.
Once upon a time, there was a factory which produced a sophisticated tool that can fix anything. This factory was located in a very secret place, which anyone didn’t know. The factory is owned by a man who is veeery rich and he wants to make the world a better place.
So he created these sophisticated tools, and he gives these tools free for everyone. He placed some big box contained these tools (and its manual book, because it’s very sophisticated, so people will need the manuals) in every place, so everyone can just pick the tool and use it. He wrote “Free All-fix Tool for Everyone by JC Factory”.
Some of the people -because of their experience of being cheated- don’t believe the tool, and they didn’t take it.
Some of the people -being so greedy- take the tools so many.
Some of the people, juz wanna try this tool, take one of them.
Some of the people, who knows the owner, take the tools delightedly.
And time passes by. The factory is still unseen, but most of the people have seen the product of the factory.
Some of the people who didn’t believe the tools changed their mind. They try the tool.
Some of the users, who don’t read the manuals carefully,use the tool wrongly, and they break it, they can’t use the tool anymore, so they just throw it away.
Some of the users, who read the manuals carefully, make a good use of the tools. Do they have problems in using the tools? Of course, but, everytime they read the manuals again, thay find the answer of their problem.
Some of the greedy people, who took so many tools, become confused because they want to use the tools altogether, but they can’t, the tools are broken if they used altogether. Some of them even sell the broken tools they took, and changed the name of the tools with their name.
And a lot more of different experience of using the tools.
Many debates come up, arguing the exsistence of the factory which produces the tool. Some of the people, who know the owner well, said that the factory is exist, and they told people the goodness of the owner. But some of the people who don’t believe said, they can’t believe the owner. Because : (1) They can’t see him and(2)Some people still suffered thogh they use the tools. It means the tools are really useless.
And the group of people who knows the owner well can’t answer the first argument, because it’s the owner’s will that he can’t be seen. Maybe sometimes he shows himself to a person, at his will, of course.
For the second argument, they (those who know the owner) answered, maybe people don’t read the manuals well, so they can’t make a good use of the tool. Or they’re being so greedy, so they break the tools.
But the unbelievers juz said, we can’t believe the manuals because the owner is unbelieveable, and so do the manuals.
The debate will be never end. But one thing for sure, the owner of the factory will keep producing those tools..it is up to the people, whether they want to believe and make a good use with the tool, or don’t believe and get nothing except endless debates.
Nice story, isn’t it? It is about God, world, and the people. The owner of the factory is God. He created the world, and gave people blessings (the tools) and commandments (the manuals). People can’t make a good use of the blessing unless they read and obey the manuals. Maybe you argue my statement by saying, you can see there are a lot of people who don’t believe in God but still very rich. I just can say, they are like the people in my story, who just use the tools, but don’t read the manuals (par 10).
Then, the suffering thingy. Why did God create the world with these suffering? Why didn’t He create a peaceeeeeefullll world? (as in heaven) From the start, God wanted humans to grow ’spiritually’, the placement of the tree in the midst of the garden is the evidence. He can created the Garden of Eden without that tree, rite? But He did create the tree, to test humans. The same like this world’s suffering. Why does He put suffering in this world? To test their believe, their love to God, maybe He even wants to test YOU, yeah, you. Your love to others, your compassion, that’s why He created suffering. But..BUT..God doesn’t make suffering without end, for He will make a way.
I have suffered a bad illness 10 years ago, it is started when I was born. It is caused by er.. i don’t know what the scientific name for that illness, but it is caused by uncompleted parts of my body. So I have a little hole near my right ear, and it often bleed. It was painful. For acknowledgement, I was born in a Christian family, so reading Bible is my daily life. When I was 8 years old, I read a verse from my Bible that speaks a lot in my heart. It is said, “No temptation is overtaken you except such in common to man; but God is faithful. Who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make a way to escape, that you maybe able to bear it.” And I believe that verse, I believe that God is responsible to my suffering, but He won’t juz leave me alone with this suffering, He will help me to face this suffering. And the story goes, the next year, I became healthy. The hole was closed. The doctor couldn’t say a thing. He was as surprised as I was (haha). I believe that was a miracle. Science can’t explain miracle. Science can’t explain God.
So..what will you choose? Will you take the tools that can fix anything in your life?
or..make this debate longer? Erm..for a suggestion, to those who don’t believe God, why don’t you try to read Bible? Maybe The Owner will show Himself to you. As He did in my life. Are you brave enough to try?
God Bless You all.

Apakah kamu mengenal Allah?
Sesungguhnya, Allah itu tidak beranak dan tidak pula diperanakkan. Dan tidak ada sesuatupun yang setara dengan Dia. Allah adalah sang pencipta alam, Dialah yang menciptakan langit dan bumi beserta isinya. Allah berbeda dengan ciptaan-Nya. Dan sesungguhnya tidak ada tuhan selain Allah. Dialah Tuhan Yang Maha Esa. Dan sesungguhnya Maryam dan Isa almasih adalah ciptaan Allah. Terima kasih.
