Mother in heaven as part of image of God

Today I met 3 Korean students preaching about the image of God. Which is said, supposed to be 2 images: Father of God, and Mother of God.

Genesis 1:26-27

26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, ^[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.

It is written there that the bible uses plural when referring to himself (or themselves), using the word us and our. So the image of God consists of 2 images. That is the Father of God and also the Mother of God, just like how everything else is created.

Gal 4:26

26But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.

Rev 21:9-10

9One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb." 10And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.

From here it is said that the mother of God or the mother of heaven is actually Jerusalem, who is the wife of the Lamb. And Jesus is the Lamb.

Rev 22:17

17The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.

So you should go to Jerusalem and take the free gift of the water of life.

Initial D

I recently have my Dad around to stay in Brisbane and we've been borrowing DVDs whenever we have the chance. It is possible because my business with eBay (as I am not working at the moment) is not so busy. We've been trying to watch all kinds of movies. And I came across this Japanese TV Series mentioned by my friend.

I enjoy watching the series very much and I am currently downloading the Third and Fourth Stage from the Internet, as they are not available in Australia.

Initial D is a TV Series about son (Takumi) of a Tofu shop owner who drives an Eight-Six Toyota car. The Eight-Six car is not a fancy car, it looks like a regular car. But as Takumi's Dad, Bunta, knows about engine, he tune up the car to the max. Bunta is a very good racer, and he has been teaching Takumi to drive as well (so that when driving will not spoil the tofu).

Takumi was found to be the best downhill specialist and he keeps winning because he is probably the best (I can't spoil your enjoyment to watch the show).

One thing that I really like about this is the technique called Drifting. By drifting, you can maintain high speed at the corner/curve, by directing the upper part of the car inward to the inner curve.

I am very happy with the series and it keeps myself occupied. Hopefully there will be more series with this quality.

Windows Vista and Microsoft Office 2007

A few days ago I received my Windows Vista and Microsoft Office 2007 from my sister who went for a holiday to Indonesia.
I installed both of them, and for Windows Vista, it does make a difference in the look and operational. But as a new Operating System, the same as previous versions, there are software compatibility problems with other third party softwares. I am lucky that all my softwares are working (not 100%, but it was enough to get things running).
As for the look of Windows Vista, I am really glad that Microsoft made this OS to be really nice looking. I guess this is a quite significant improvement to Windows OS. It does look somewhat like Linux and maybe it is because Linux is now contributing to build Windows?
It is easier to find files now with Vista, and although just recently using it, I can find files easier with Vista already. I am really glad with the addition of clock, weather report, calendar and slide show (also other items that I didn't include) at the right side of the desktop. I thought it was quite original.
As for Microsoft Office 2007, it seems there are some additional functionalities to Office. And it does look nicer too. I am glad that they are both working well with my rather outdated laptop, and other peripherals that I have here.
