Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that
reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves
and not be scattered over the face of the whole earth.“ (Genesis 11:4)
God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him
and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. (Acts 17:27)
Wahyu 7:9
Revelation 7 : 9
• Why. 15:4 Siapakah yang tidak takut, ya Tuhan, dan
yang tidak memuliakan nama-Mu? Sebab Engkau
saja yang kudus; karena semua bangsa akan datang
dan sujud menyembah Engkau, sebab telah nyata
kebenaran segala penghakiman-Mu."
Wahyu 15:4
Revelation 15 : 4
1. To make us humble and so that we can be dependent
upon the LORD.
2. So that we should seek Him
3. So that we may worship and glorify Him among the
nations
After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that
no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and
language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb.
They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches
in their hands. (Rev. 7:9)
Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring glory to your name?
For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship
before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed.“ (15:4)

"When I was a boy, Lie says, "I did wrong. The
Lord told me to move on, and I went to the sea.
I spent 15 years on Dutch sailing between
Durban and Shanghai. But I saw Dutch did
wrong, so once again I moved on. I went to the
Holy Land. And God told me to go home and
help make Indonesia a Garden of Eden."
--John Lie
His stand recalled the basic government, which begun
shortly after the war ended in the Pacific, over
whether the Dutch were imposing a trade restriction
or a blockade against Indonesia. Believing the Dutch
were trying to struggle Indonesian Independence, Lie
begun his smuggling career. He prays that his country
will some day be transformed from "wild jungle" into
a "Garden of Eden".

"Siapakah orang pribumi dan non pribumi itu? Orang
pribumi adalah orang–orang yang jelas–jelas membela
kepentingan negara dan bangsa. Sedangkan non
pribumi adalah adalah mereka yang suka korupsi, suka
pungli, suka memeras dan melakukan subversi. Mereka
itu sama juga menusuk kita dari belakang. Pada
hakikatnya mereka tidak mementingkan apalagi
membela nasib bangsa kita. Mereka adalah
pengkhianat–pengkhianat bangsa. Jadi soal pribumi
dan non pribumi bukannya dilihat dari suku bangsa
dan keturunan melainkan dari sudut pandang
kepentingan siapa yang mereka bela."
