Double Standards in Rhetoric?

Christian Martyrdom!

Eleven Christians were today murdered by ISIL/S in the Middle-East, while many world leaders will use rhetoric to justify their actions in allowing some of this?

While at home they want to be seen as goodie, goodie to win the next election campaign and excuse themselves from responsibility!

We humans are real hypocrite’s  at the best of times and fail to understand the cost of being really born-again, over that of religious observance and the need to be saved?

Psalm 141:8,  Jeremiah 29:11,  13,  Acts 6:5-7:59,  Romans 2:7,  3:21-31,  Galatians 6:9.

The Virgin Birth?

Two Miracles!

With science and medicine today we can imagine that the Holy Spirit coming over that young Jewish girl Mary was like artificial insemination?  But God was working through the Holy Spirit to implant her with the seed of Jesus from Incarnate to human flesh!

The second miracle was that of healing her womb and vagina after birthing Jesus, so that she remained a virgin to her husband Joseph!

Matthew 1:20-22,    25,    Luke 1:30-35,     2:7,    John 1:1-5.

Sometimes the full meaning of the Christmas message and its miracles can be lost in the ecclesiastical language that the ordinary folk get confused over?

John 3:3,   15-16,  Romans 12:6,  2 Corinthians 5:19,  Galatians 3:13,  4:4-5,   2 Timothy 4:15.

Para-Psychology? Part-One.

Science proves no Ghosts!

Many in the scientific filed have taken this aspect of the spiritual realm and proved to themselves that ghosts do not exist while the causes have more to do with the mind of the individuals state?

The Holy Bible thus proves science to be wrong in the way that it comes at and treat this matter! The Disciples of Jesus were far from mentally unbalanced, when they saw Jesus walking on the water and thought they were seeing a ghost!

Jesus gives us the full explanation of what ghosts are, He also told them of the Spiritual powers and insight that they would be given and that we believers possess today through the working of the Holy Spirit in our new lives.

Matthew 14:26-27,  Mark 6:49-50,  13:11,  Acts 1:8,   2:4,   11:16,   Jude 1:20.

PENTECOST!

Fire, gifts, comfort and Friendship?

The world today is a harsh and pressured place to live in to survive, one wonders what they said two thousand years ago in Jerusalem and Rome bustling cities in their own right?

Life is pressured and people are demanding to meet deadlines, sometimes even the Church can be worse than the world when tempers fray?

God promised through Jesus that the believers would never be alone, we have got a wonderful friend to help us all the time! He has given us gifts to use, He helps us pray, has provided us with Spiritual armour and He is our friend to guide us through the difficulties and the good times of our lives!

Psalm 48:14,   Ecclesiastes 12:11,   Acts 2:3-4,   Ephesians 6:10-17,   Revelation 2:7.

Forty to Fifty Days!

A time to reflect between Easter and Pentecost?

Not many believers bother to much after Easter, they just settle down and press on, but this is a good time to reflect and look at the other events of those forty days before our Lord Ascended and the Holy Spirit was poured out in Jerusalem.

We have so much that is both precious and invaluable and if we are serious about our conversion and faith, we will want to maintain what we have and also be of service to others with the love of Jesus that is within our hearts?

Today is difficult for most believers if not all, the world is attacking us from every angle but we have to make a stand for the truth and continue on in love warning this world that a day of reckoning is coming for us all!

Matthew 13:46,  John 20:29,   Galatians 6:14,   Hebrews 11:1,   2 Peter 1:1,  4,   1 John 5:11-12,

Why do Governments Tolerate? Two.

Keeping Face!

Did you know that the U.S. President Trump is actually afraid of woman in power, that is why he is at this time during the G20 in Argentina playing ball over the Ukraine to please British PM Mrs May!

World leaders play diplomatic games facing each other off and pretending to keep what they claim to have said or not?

The Holy Bible calls this intrigue or clever manipulation of events something the British government has played with its own people over Brexit, but this goes on all over the place with many other issues too even despite it being dishonest!

Isaiah 14:13,   Ezekiel 28:2,  6,  9,  Matthew 24:4-6,   1 Corinthians 8:5,   2 Thessalonians 2:3-4,   2 Timothy 4:3-4,   Revelation 13:6-7.

Christmas Preparations?

Most people share across the Monotheistic Divide!

December 1st and 2nd is the Jewish festival of the dedication of the Temple that covers nine days and nine presents, then comes Latin Christmas 24th December to 26th, followed by the Eastern Orthodox, after the New Year 31st to 1st January, 1st to 7th and last of all the Armenian and some Coptic’s the 19th of January!

Islam marks the birth of the great Prophet Jesus/Isa around the same times as Christians do, but for them he means nothing more and for some fanatics they can always find and excuse to murder ordinary people?

But the facts of Christmas are slowly being eroded in western society by black Friday commercialism, and the essential message of Jesus the Saviour of the world coming in human flesh and born of the virgin seems to be lost?

Isaiah 9:6-7,   43:11,  Luke 1:28-36,   2:11,   John 4:42,   Acts 4:12,   13:23,    Titus 3:4.

armistice?

culmination!

Its one hundred years since the end of World War-I (1914-18), ‘The wars to end all wars? But the truth was it was the beginning of a new age in warfare with the introduction of many new things, radio communications, mustered gas, flamethrowers and the tank!

It was also the age of the first use of aerial combat from ‘Dog fighting to bombing raids, by German airships over London and all gentlemanly of course!

What was gained was enough knowledge for world war-II (1939-45), were eugenics was fulfilled in the Nazi Holocaust and new atomics and rocketry  were also part of the new culmination of wars!

God wants us believers to really remember those who went before us and to see what he has done for us in redeeming us back to Him through Jesus! To understand that we have a precious salvation and the promise of an eternal life with Him!

Numbers 31:6,  Judges 3:10,  Psalm 120:7,  Jeremiah 14:15,  Acts 4:26,  Hebrews 9:11-12,  14,  12:1-2,  Revelation 17:14.

DNA and Genetics. One.

Dangers of it, now being Highlighted?

It would seem that there is a new debate about the dangers and the long term effects of Genetic manipulation! Science is waking up to those early findings of wonderment may now not be so great as they had once hoped for?

The problem with the DNA of humanity is that we are stained by the inherited condition of sin, we can never escape this condition in the physical, but only in the Spiritual of God entering our lives!

Many cancers have been cured and this is fantastic for those sufferers, but many new ones have started to appear! Its just the same with gardening or farming, weeds are nuisance and very hard to eradicate?

Exodus 22:6,  Job 31:40,  Psalm 92:7,  Jonah 2:5,  Matthew 13:25-40,  John 3:3, 15-21,  31-36,  Hebrews 6:8.

Fire, fruit and Pruning! One.

The role of the Holy Spirit in the believers New Life?

When we are born again of the final atonement of Jesus death on the cross and resurrection on the third day from the grave, because of our faith and repentance we individually receive the Holy Spirit!

First there is an inner fire, a flame of mixed passion and compassion for the lost around us, family and friends! We are eager with share our testimony and witness our faith and from this comes fruit, but we have also been given fruit the ability to use these divine and spiritual resources?

Then when we have learned how to use these gifts, we also will learn how to prune back the elements that are not profitable, so that all may be refined to start afresh and press on?

John 15:1-16,   Acts 2:3,   1 Corinthians 3:13,   12:6-30,   Galatians 5:22,    Jude 1:23.
