LESSON

God is great, God is strong, and God is powerful; no one can arrest God, and nobody can curtail his power. God is graceful and loving, but his anger is brutal! He could consume the whole world with fire and turn it to ashes within a second. If God stomps his feet in annoyance, the whole world would go disarray and suffer tremendous casualties. Therefore, all people ought to fear God, and pay him due respect. We must pay tribute to God for utilizing his remarkable power to favor humanity. No one else should be due of human praises than God of gods and Lord of lords who resides in heaven and rules over the earth. Moreover, since God remains invisible, people ought to respect his servants that are visible. God’s servants are his ambassadors confirmed with right to exercise authority on his behalf. A person who has respected God’s servant has respected God. Also, a person who has disrespected God’s servants has equally disrespected God. No doubt that anyone who abuses God’s servant will suffer punishments from God.
