Hope for the best

Once again we observe Anti Drugs Day on June 26 toconscientize the minds of the people against the use and abuse

of drugs hoping to curtail the ratio of menace or mishap by it.Observance of this day has made some kind of awareness among thepeople and has considerably reduced the number of users day byday. The Anti Pan Masala rally from Kasaragod to Trivandrumconducted by the Social Awareness group (Angelos) of ICPF hasalso contributed in banning the product in Kerala. During the lastacademic year we conducted similar rally against the use and abuseof drugs, smoking, alcohol, mobile phone etc. have evoked goodresponse from college/school students and received warmappreciation from people from all walks of life. This also paved wayfor some kind of stringent action from the authorities concerned.Some day or other people will realize the real threat against themankind seeing the increasing number of casualties by its use.

The observance of one day is not enough but a constant andsteady effort to mobilize people on a war foot basis. All theplatforms should be used for raising the slogan against substanceabuse.

We have to strive hard for a drug free world, a drug free society.Advanced communication techniques or devices have to be used tospread the message against substance abuse through SMS, MMS, e-mail etc. The social networks can also be used for this campaign.Govt. authorities can play a pivotal role in banning the sale of thesesubstances. Stringent measures have to be taken against those whomake substance abuse. Let us work hand in hand for a drug freesociety without limiting our efforts in the observance of this day


Spiritual food from Jonah

One of the greatest truths Jonah reveals is that “Salvation isof the Lord” (2:9). He got it in the depths of the great fish,

and in the depths of the greatest trial that ever came to him. In thehour of our greatest trials, truths are made real to us. This greattruth reveals that salvation is of the Lord. The power toappropriate salvation is also of the Lord, the grace to perseverein salvation is of the Lord. Salvation, from start to finish, is ofHim, and is revealed to us in His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Heis the Author and Finisher of our faith in Him (Heb. 12:2).

The Saviour of the world (Jn. 4:42)

Jesus is the Saviour of sinners of every nation, including Nineveh.The Jews, and Jonah, fancied that God’s salvation was confinedonly to them. But, thank God, it is sent to the gentiles as well.There is no difference between the Jew and the gentile, all havesinned and come short of God’s glory. All need salvation. Jesusis able to save all, and all are welcome to seek and find salvationin Him. The Gospel excludes no one. There is no sinner that Christcannot save. There is no sinner He is not willing to save, if thatsinner is willing to be saved by Him, His way. But how does Hesave? He fulfilled the precepts of the Law in His own life and Hepaid the penalty by His death. His one sacrifice once for all madean infinite atonement for sin. It met and satisfied all the claims ofdivine justice. In His life and death He did all that was necessaryto procure the pardon, justification, and eternal life of poor sinners.His resurrection and ascension to heaven prove this. He nowplaces to the account of every sinner who believes on Him themerit of what He did and suffered. Thus, ‘as by one man’sdisobedience many were made sinners, so by the righteousnessof one shall many be made righteous.

Salvation is of the Lord


Grace thatoverrides genes

Dr. Paulson Pulikottil

To a large extent our behaviour is geneticallyconditioned. People who belong to certain

ethnic groups have common physical and evenemotional characteristics because of the genes thatcontrol biological and emotional aspects of theirlife. Certain groups of people are prone to certaindiseases while other groups totally immune tothese because of their particular genetic structure.This also means that human behaviour ispredictable and to a large extent unchangeableunless there is genetic modification.

Paul talks about another factor that overridesgenetic conditioning that decides humanbehaviour. That is grace. Paul was intolerant,violent and possibly a psychopath too. He couldnot tolerate a group of Jews who consideredthemselves as followers of Jesus of Nazareth. Heconsidered this new faith called Christianitysomething that should be destroyed. He resortedto violent means of arresting them and killingthem. To achieve this aim of annihilating all theChristians he went on a tour to the neighbouringlands too.

However, we find an entirely different Paulafter his dramatic transforming experience of risenJesus on the Damascus road. It was natural thathis stand toward Christians was softened becausehe became one of them. However, this man hasbecome someone who willingly suffered and evenrejoiced in suffering (Romans 5:3). His attitudetowards his opponents was very accommodative(Philippians 1:15-18).

Paul attributes his transformation to “grace”.He said, “But by the grace of God I am what Iam” (1 Corinthians 15:10). It was grace that

transformed him, or says that overrode the geneticconditioning of him. The genes may control ourphysical look, biological factors and our behaviourbut grace that is available to us overrides “genes”.Grace is that divine element in our life, which issolely available with God and is given to us as hewills.

So many people with inherited diseases werehealed by the miraculous intervention of Godwithout any genetic modification. The Gospel ofgrace has transformed people with criminalinclinations and who have served prison terms topeople who serve humanity sacrificially. Here alsograce has overtaken genes. The greatest of theseis the change in character that grace can bringabout. Jesus Christ has ushered in this newpossibility that makes new persons out of the old;that is called of the grace of Jesus Christ.

People who belong to certain ethnicgroups have common physical and evenemotional characteristics because of thegenes that control biological andemotional aspects of their life. Certaingroups of people are prone to certaindiseases while other groups totallyimmune to these because of theirparticular genetic structure. This alsomeans that human behaviour ispredictable and to a large extentunchangeable unless there is geneticmodification


Hell from BiblicalPerspective

We as Christians tend to focus a lot onGod’s salvation and His love. But

sometimes when we focus on just these aspectsof God, it is dangerous. It does not give us acomplete picture. This God, who is very loving,is also a just God; and because He is a just God,there has to be a hell.

Every Christian must have a clear and properunderstanding of hell. Hell can be compared toprison here on earth. Prisoners have no specialprivileges, rights, opportunities. But even this isnothing compared to how horrible hell will be.Even the Bible clearly states this.

There are a few things about hell that shouldbe remembered. Firstly, there is no peace in hell.All the demons, and those who rejected God onearth, the Devil will be hating each other evenin hell. Everything that has to do with God willbe very far away. There is no Bible, no Church,no help, comfort, or advice. There is also noopportunity for salvation; it would be too late,the chance for salvation is on earth, not in hell.

There is also no rest in hell. There is onlyconstant torment, night and day, by the gnawingworm, in everlasting fire (Mk 9:48). So therewill be no resting place in Hell. It will also beeternally dark (Jude 13). The everlasting flame

There is no Bible,no Church, no help,comfort, or advice. There isalso no opportunity forsalvation; it would be toolate, the chance forsalvation is on earth, not inhell


Bishop's

of fire does not give light, but it burns. So therewill be no light in hell.

There will also be no pleasure in hell, theway we have here on earth. No flowers, rivers,trees, fruits, food, music, cities, towns andvillages. It is a lake which burn with fire andbrimstone (Rev. 21:8).

For those in hell, there is no escape at all.Jesus said so, who has the key, knows andcannot lie. There is an escape available here onearth, but not in hell. There is no second chance,once soul departed from the body.

One of the worst features of hell is that thereis no time there. There is only a beginning, butno end. Day and night, month, year, seasons, donot exist in hell. It is endless and eternal.

All this talk about hell might seem verynegative. Sometimes we even feel it is better tonot talk or even think about it. But if we are tobe true Christians, it is impossible to deny this.

But the focus is not on hell. We do not focuson hell to scare people or to condemn them.

A Centenary withoutJesus

A poor Christian from a backward community was transferred to a city where therewas a Church of his own faith. But its members were rich and fashionable. He went

to the pastor and asked for membership in that Church. The pastor knew that hiscongregation members would not like to give membership to this stranger. The pastorasked the new comer to pray about it and seek an answer from God. After a few days, hecame to the pastor for a reply. The pastor asked him “Son, did you pray about it.” He said“Yes?” “What reply did you get from the Lord?” he said, “Jesus told me as follows-son,don’t be disappointed. You have weeks. I have been trying to enter there since itsfoundation 100 years ago, and I have not yet been admitted there.”

Even as we consider hell, we also rememberthat our God is a loving God, a God who saves,a God who does not want us to go to hell. Thechoice is up to us.

Be on your guard, so that you will not be ledaway by the errors of lawless people and fallfrom your safe position to thus. Lake of firewhich will never get extinguished.


All the preventive measures in the world cannot assure that our children will not experimentwith drugs. If parents suspect that their child is already using drugs, the followingpractical suggestions should be followed.

• First, don’t deny your suspicions. Drug addiction takes time but occurs much faster with achild than an adult. Some of the newer drugs (especially crack) can quickly lead to addiction.Parents should act on their suspicions. Denial may waste precious time. A child’s life may bein danger.

• Second, learn to recognize the symptoms of drug abuse. The warning signs listed above areimportant clues to a child’s involvement with drugs. Some readily noticeable physicalsymptoms include a pale face, imprecise eye movements, and neglect of personal appearance.Some less noticeable symptoms involving social interaction include diminished drive orreduced ambition, a significant drop in the quality of schoolwork, reduced attention span,impaired communication skills, and less care for the feelings of others.

• Third, be consistent. Develop clear rules in the areas of curfew, accountability for anallowance and where your teen spends his or her time. Then stick with these rules. Consistentguidelines will allow for less opportunity to stumble into sin of any kind.

• Fourth, open up lines o communication with your child. Ask probing questions and becomeinformed about the dangers of drugs and the potential risk to your child. Finally, be tough.Fighting drugs takes patience and persistence. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t makeheadway right away. Your unconditional love is a potent weapon against drugs


Painkillers are drugs commonly prescribedfor pain and are only legally available by

prescription.Painkiller abuse can be dangerous, even

deadly, with too high a dose or when taken withother drugs, like alcohol. Short-term effects ofpainkiller abuse may include lack of energy,inability to concentrate, nausea and vomiting, andapathy. Significant doses of painkillers can causebreathing problems. When abused, painkillers canbe addictive.Depressants

Depressants, or downers, are prescribed totreat a variety of health conditions includinganxiety and panic attacks, tension, severe stressreactions, and sleep disorders. Also referred toas sedatives and tranquilizers, depressants canslow normal brain function.Health risks related to depressant abuse includeloss of coordination, respiratory depression,dizziness due to lowered blood pressure, slurredspeech, poor concentration, feelings ofconfusion, and in extreme cases, coma andpossible death.Stimulants

Stimulants, or uppers, are most commonlyprescribed for attention deficit/hyperactivity

disorder (ADHD), but they are also used to treata variety of conditions such as asthma,respiratory problems, obesity, and sleepdisorders such as narcolepsy. When taken inhigher doses, these drugs can produce euphoriceffects and counteract sluggish feelings.Health risks related to stimulant abuse includeincreased heart and respiratory rates, excessivesweating, vomiting, tremors, anxiety, hostilityand aggression, and in severe abuse, suicidal/homicidal tendencies, convulsions, andcardiovascular collapse.Steroids

Steroids are used to medically treat peoplewith abnormally low testosterone levels orsymptoms of body wasting, as is the case withcancer patients. Abuse of steroids is oftenrelated to physical appearance, such as a desireto build muscle or change body shape.While health effects vary by individual, they caninclude liver cysts and cancer, kidney cancer,jaundice, severe acne, and hair loss.


Prakash V. Mathew

The Road not Taken‘But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up withwings as eagle; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and notfaint.”(Isaiah 40:31)

“The road not taken” is a small but beautiful poem of the famous American poetRobert Frost. The poet describes a traveler (himself!) who takes a road less traveled byothers. It’s ofcourse, a daring experience to take such an untraditional path. Taking aroad less traveled by others is the mark of those who are special in their mental make-up and attitude. In psalms .4:3, we read: `know that the Lord hath set apart him that isGodly for himself”. Godly men, naturally will be special people, in their own lonelyway!

Eagle is a bird which prefers to fly high in the air. It must be free to soar in theopen space to be happy. As there are not many birds which can reach such heights, itseems lonely up there! But the eagle is not discouraged by the quietness, for it is notits nature to mingle with the multitude. It is a voluntary choice to be alone.

The Word of God promises that we have the opportunity to reign with Christforever, but we must linger in His presence. The mounting up activity is a reference toovercomers who are in harmony with the throne of God. All believers may not havethis honourable place, for they will not step out into the unlimited area of heavenlytruth and associated experiences. God has predestined a bride for His son, and He haspurposed that His glory shall be manifested in her. What a high calling!

Those who rise on wings of eagles have discovered freedom in Christ. This is achallenging experience, as we have not traveled through this road before. But the HolySpirit is within us to give proper direction. The Lord sometimes takes us out of ourcomfort zone and puts us into heights we never dreamt of!

“Heights of great men reached and keptWere not achieved by a sudden flight,But they, when their companions slept

Were toiling upward in the night”

Good-bye to Pan Masala

It was a common sight in every shop near and far of schools and colleges theavailability of Pan Masala with different names such as Passpass, Hans, Shambu,

Tulasi etc. These varieties of Pan masala contains, Cumin seed (Jeera), rock sugar,Clove, tobacco, areca nut and various levels of drugs. Passpass is less harmful butdangerous. Hans is most popular among the youth. In fact college and high schoolstudents have a love affair with Pan Masala and its variants and now even those whichdo not contain tobacco and just areca nut have been known to cause oral sub mucousfibrosis, a pre-cancerous condition in the month.

On May 25, 2012 the Government of Kerala made a landmark decision to bangutkha, and Pan Masala products. The Government would lose Rs 15 crore in taxrevenue because of the ban. But remember as a result of the ban we can expect theincidence of oral cancer will be on the decrease. The Government has set up tobaccocessation centres to help chronic users come out of addiction. Kerala had become thesecond state in the country after Madhya Pradesh to ban gutkha products.

While we congratulate the present Government for this radical step we shouldlook to the circumstances that led to this noble decision. Parents and all good peoplewere grieved to see the children and youth fall victims to these gutkha products andbecoming potential cancer patients

Inter Collegiate Prayer Fellowship has got a mobile platform called ANGELOS (ANational Gospel Endeavor of Liberation of Students) in Kerala ever since 1990. Alongwith several other campaigns, they initiated a state wide campaign against Pan Masalafrom Kasargod to Trivandrum in 2006 through 2010. They waged war against gutkhaand Pan Masala products through skits, music, speech and posters lead to cancerouscondition in the mouth. Thousands of posters were on demand by various organizations.More than two lakhs tracts were printed and distributed to youngsters in all the 14districts of Kerala. At the end thirty thousand signature from students and public werecollected and submitted to the then Honourable Health Ministers Shri P. Sankaran.Messers Kunjumon Mathew, Sunil Zachariah and K. V. Jomon and leaders of ICPFwere behind this noble venture. Many churches, and various other religious and socialorganizations followed the good examples of ICPF.

This has proved once again the fact that social evils can be eradicated if we unitetogether and fight against them with determination and trust in God. Let us hope thatthe officials will enforce the ban effectively.
