LIFE?

What is needed for the nation and the Faith!

At times it is difficult to see any difference today between Ekklesia and the Kosmon, they have become intertwined and thus ineffective on scale to be different?

For some believers this may seem a good concept in thought, but now it is killing the power of the Holy Spirit in blocking off God!

As believers in the death, resurrection, ascension and return of Jesus our Lord, we are different from the world, in that we are living in it, but we are not of it!

There are many issues that rationalism is pushing and many in leadership are compromising the faith to win acceptance, when the truth is that sins must be denounced, repented of and not returned into!

New life is us focused on Jesus, will win souls and we will see that what we belong to is not what the world thinks is alright?

Acts 2:28, 5:20, Romans 2:7, 1 Corinthians 7:17, 2 Corinthians 4:10, Galatians 6:8, Ephesians 4:17-18, Colossians 3:3.

Visibility of the Clergy!

Mourning for Queen Elizabeth-II Regina and the Nation?

Are we seeing a reality of loss, a comfort to the people or just a procedure that has to be seen to be carried out every time a Monarch or a Prime minister passes?

The work of chaplaincy is now much needed as a million people may pass the coffin of our late Queen and be in deep grievance that death brings on us, if not recall to our own pain of personal loss?

Jesus was the great shepherd and He appointed the Disciples, who became Apostles and as the Ekklesia grew from the Way, much more was required in Church office to care for the respective flocks and not lord it over others vulnerable or not!

But we are all sinners and will fail as many do to money, to adultery, to theft, to hurting and exploiting others, if not the cases of sexual abuse and murder! Vows are not kept and many are flippant in their responsibilities accepting men who feel they are woman, while denouncing woman from the pulpit and breaking with Biblical teaching to self-achievement over the dying to self and obedience?

Jeremiah 23:2, John 3:3-21, 10:1-14, Acts 20:28, Hebrews 4:12-13, 9:26, 13:4.

This Generation?

Jesus compares!

One one level Israel was looking for deliverance from Greek influence and Roman occupation, but on the other hand they were pretending to be morally something they were not and in that they refused to turn to their Messiah and be saved?

Many came to Him to be healed, to have the demons driven out, but as one man said to Jesus help me to believe this, others followed with idealism as much as Judas Iscariot who would betray Him!

Others ran away in fear, some played the flute and danced others the dirge of the funeral songs, but neither had faith only their empty traditions?

Today many claim a faith and yet they practice dishonesty, live in sexual sin, justify or ignore poverty, exploitation and pretend our nations are great, when they are not and neither is Ekklesia either!

Matthew 11;16-17, Luke 7:31-32, James 4:7.

A scary world!

When the United State can turn off the Internet?

America always claims to be the land of the free, but now we see that they are not and when the other side cannot express itself, we are moving into a troubled situation?

Ethnic Russian living in Eastern -Ukraine have suffered eight years of attacks from nationalistic forces and no one came to their defence, not even Russia, but now that they have oh they are the bad guys and deserve to be punished?

One has to wonder if Joe Biden is an American or perhaps he is really a Nazi-German lover, since he too is another President not much interested in the fallen of his nation in past wars!

As believers we must not let ourselves be caught up in the hype of this self-righteous cause of human idealism, we are looking a racism on level unseen since black slavery or the Jewish Holocaust and it has to come to and end with right prayers, before we could end up in a world-war-II scenario that will kill millions?

Happy New Year 2022!

Will it be the same, not getting Involved?

We meet many people all over the place and they are all distant from religion, some remember Sunday school others a odd Bible story, which they confuse with Mohammed and Islam, while others have nothing to hold on to but Santa and his elves?

This is how bad it is in many parts of the western Christian society, even in the United States people say everyone who they believe was good will go to Heaven, but when pushed they know very little of the Holy Bible!

Talking recently to clergy people one got the image that they wanted Church to return, but they really wanted to avoid issues, how sad that they fail to read the Bible or believe in God and its only Doctrine and comfort with an easy life?

Other parts it is a hard graft, a hard calling with persecution, much like Stephen the first Martyr! Because when you tell the truth the world will really hate you, even some in the Ekklesia who have some mixed up ideas about the police, knife and gun crime and grassing up others?

Deuteronomy 33:12, John 5:39-40, 2 Thessalonians 3:16, 1 Peter 1:14, 18.

christmas Story!

How relevant today is the authority of Jesus?

With the gay and transgender movement, a breakdown in society and corruption, dishonesty in government, probably not a lot!

But this changes nothing in relation to the word of God, the authority that comes with Jesus virgin birth, death on the cross and His rising from the will Eternally remain the same!

His Ascension, the giving of the Holy Spirit to believers and promised return, opens events for Armageddon and the Day of Judgement at the end when the world will see Jesus-God as the Judge of humanity?

We need to follow God and remember His laws do not change, but for us who are saved He has fulfilled the Law for us!

Isaiah 7:11-14, 9:1-7, 53:1-5, Luke 1:35, Romans 8:32, Ephesians 1:21-22, Hebrews 1:8, 13:20.

Lies, upon lies, upon more Lies!

The cracks are getting Larger?

The lying is not just Boris but the whole government and society is being poisoned by no example of any form of honesty coming from leadership!

From parties last Christmas to laughing and mocking people who lost loved ones, it proves that the wealthy are never in touch with the reality on the ground and the truth be told, they do not care?

Many nations are corrupt and politics is about unfulfilled promises, but when the man in the street is asked to obey rule, that are then broken by those who enforce them enough is enough!

Luke 18:3, 2 Corinthians 7:10, 1 Timothy 3:15, James 4:16, 1 Peter 4:3.

Remembering?

Networks of Service Peoples!

Only the survivors march, wreaths are laid for those gone by who fought in our various wars and much pain and suffering is brought to mind, but not much is done for those who were cowards, who refused to fight on religious grounds or now suffer from post traumatic distress symptoms or shell shock?

In all of humanity there is a hypocrisy to conflict, governments, kings and the the simple folk the sometime brain washed fodder of battles!

There is no solution to the human condition accept for faith in God, but most times this does not mean we can avoid fighting wars, conflicts or terrorism which is now more prevalent than it has ever seemed?

2 Samuel 17:8, Psalm 144:10, Hosea 1:7, Matthew 24:6, Mark 13:7, Luke 21:9, 2 Corinthians 10:4, Ephesians 6:10-18.

As believers we fight wars everyday, in the mind, with those who seek to argue with us over why is this and why does God not do that, but we are a already armed up people with our faith, Salvation, truth, gospel message and the sword of the Spirit!

The mire, roots and the Rock!

The world of mud and the rock of faith in Jesus?

Many today choose the mire, believing they are fine in their ways, when they are sinking into the mud of the world?

They have no roots in Jesus, no foundation upon to solid rock, they have been blinded by the headlights of the cars and cannot or will not come to the true light of the world Jesus?

Only God can take us out of the messes that we are in, He will ground us, root us to the truth and build or anchor us to His rock a secure foundation that we can build and grow on!

Psalm 69:2, Jeremiah 38:22, Matthew 7:25, Colossians 2:7, 1 Peter 1:5.

‘Chips?

Track and Trace!

The best way and the most upsetting for believers, would be to have a chip fitted in the wrist, rather than the current expensive technology that is being employed?

The planting of a chip in the arm may be the answer to the problems of controlling diabetes and it is coming, while plans for other areas of medicine sound good in relation to this pandemic, which may last over ten years?

Chipping would allow airport security to know if the person was jabbed with the vaccine and other information to the condition of each person!

We may not have it yet, but it will come sooner than later, since many animals are chipped and it works for tracking, humans too will be in the same position?

Wither this is the mark of the beast or not is hard to say, since we are told it is a number that may be tattooed on the skin and will come through the business community first!

Ezra 3:12, 2 Chronicles 16:9, Psalm 37:32, Proverbs 16:30, Jeremiah 8:17, Matthew 24:42, Mark 13:33, Philippians 3:2, 1 Peter 5:8.
