The NEW LIFE?

Remembering Jesus!

It is tough to be a follower of Jesus and that is perhaps why many give up and waste their time sitting in fellowship doing nothing or just praying?

This time of the year Easter should be one of reflection to see what Jesus has done for us and the reasons and cost behind it all, that we are saved, reconciled, loved from the coming wrath of God Almighty!

So as we enjoy our Easter eggs let us remember and get back on track with Him in serving within and sharing outside?

John 3:3, 16, 4:23-24, Romans 3:25-26, 5:8-11. Hebrews 4:12-23, 9:26-27, Jude 1:6-7.

Twenty Years after 9/11!

Over four-hundred of the 3000 who died were British.

Many families of British troops lost in the last twenty years in Afghanistan, have said what was it for?

Well the U.S. bombed the Tora-Bora complex and destroyed the largest terror base ever, they eventually found Bin-Laden in Pakistan and great advantages were made in fields that the media did not cover!

What is our response to be to the worst known one off terror event in human history, to remember the British financiers and visitors who died in the twin towers on that day and the 400+ soldiers who died in Afghanistan doing their job!

One does not join an army to choose where they go, one goes were they are told and so we who have faith are armed for the warfare that we must face daily both in the physical and Spiritual and endure it?

More believers have died in the past twenty years world-wide for just believing in Jesus, than perhaps all the conflicts put together and we will eventually meet all of them when we get home to Heaven!

Ideology.

Ideology, the ideas of men.

When we look at the world today we are drawn to think of the many closed lands and societies, that do not have or want to have our concepts and what we describe as freedoms.

These nations seem to be closed and controlled, such as North-Korea, China, Cuba and yet there are many lands near and far who practice similar conditions, such as Saudi-Arabia, Iran, Algeria, Sudan, Belarus and the list could go on and on.

Many follow the ideology of men and the party or a system or a king, religion or great leader. Some keep to the ethical code of their revolution. But what does mark them out is all who oppose must be imprisoned for a long time or killed.

It is valuable to read books in relation to Ray Bradbury and Farenheight 451 and George Orwells 1984, with the various films. Both these men were writing about conditions in 1938-1948. They were trying to warn us that any society can turn from what it is now into an idelogical dictatorship.

Genesis Chapter 11,  Exodus 1 :8-22,   Daniel 4:30-32.
