Mind, Heart and Soul. One.

We Choose?

It is easy to blame all the evil and bad in the world on the Devil, when the truth has more to do with our own human choices? Jesus told the people in ear shot of Him that it was a mans heart that was were the origins of our own actions stem from!

It does not matter how many rules you think you can keep, or the way you choose to live, meditate, use different ways to form your lifestyle? Sin will always get in the way, our inherited condition will allow us to choose from a selfish standpoint, from lust, desires and what we want?

On the other hand we claim to have faith in the death of Jesus on the cross/stake/tree for our sins and forgiveness and His resurrection from the dead into our New Life? Then we are daily challenged with how to apply love to those who hate us and try to us either physical or mental harm!

Genesis 4:7, 6:5-6,  Job 1:8,  Psalm 10:9-10,  Matthew 15:18-19,  Luke 6:45,  1 Peter 3:4,  Jude 1:4,  22-23.

The Spiritual Realm. One.

Un Explained!

Science, philosophy may from time to time make the attempt to try to explain elements of the Spiritual realm? But when they fail to try to understand it, they are quick to dismiss it?

Yet as believers we know that the realm of God is as real to us at the physical that we are living in today! This world hates us and torments us in many sly and slippery ways, but we have the power of the Holy Sprit to bring to us comfort as Jesus promised!

The world will never see what we have, unless they see their failures and repent turning to God in trust? Knowing that he does care for us and is concerned for our welfare and future destiny!

The Conquest of Islam. Two.

Jesus will Prevail!

Much of what is claimed today by this enormous religion of their historical past, was the destruction by military force the establishment of 500 year-old Christian settlements around the world!

Excuses and cover-up is one of the many religious ideologies and some Christian movements such as the Spanish Inquisition and Papal denouncing of Galileo and De Vince stumped astronomy and science.

Believers will go and are going through daily hard times, from family, work, school, prison, retirement! It is hard, as it was for Jesus but we shall prevail and we know this because we have the truth of God in our hearts and minds!

Isaiah 59:17,  2 Corinthians 10:4,  Ephesians 6:17,  1 Thessalonians 5:8,   Titus 3:9.

May Day!

1st May, Workers Day.

Today many people are in the same condition that they were in the 19th Century, when it comes to hours having to be worked to get a decent wage? The workers around the world do need their day to, to remember all who fought for our rights?

God asks us to be fare and to have concern for those who are less fortunate than us! We must be different from the world, if we claim to love and follow Jesus!

The 19th Century idealism of the Utopian concept, never happened but since the fall of the Soviet Union some countries have become totalitarian to the point of a dynastic rule?This is nothing new in biblical and world history, even China with its embrace of capitalism is still intolerant of the Christian faith!

Genesis 29:15,  31:7-8,  Luke 10:34,  John 4:36,  1 Corinthians 12:25.

The Apocalypse. One.

The end is not Immediate?

What a statement to be made by Jesus in relation to the End of the Ages?

Jesus was hinting to a series of circumstances leading up to the Great day of His return and what processes where to follow!

The title of this series is the Apocalypse a Greek word meaning Revelation and the events of the End is written for us by the Disciple John as the last book of the Bible, New Testament.

Jesus is speaking to His own, us that we must not be scared or worried about these and the many other events. We will be handed up to the world to be put on trial for our faith, under accusations Just as He was.

But we will have the Power of the Holy Spirit within us to speak the right words at that time!

Luke 21:9, Matthew 24:6-8,  Luke 13:7-9.

URBANIZATION. TWO.

Great Cities.

Today we might say Moscow, New York, Shanghai, Paris and London and there a quite a few more?  We remember them because they are the seats of great power, freedoms, liberation, culture, science, all the attributes of human achievment!

The bible tells us to about the great cities that hold dark powers, these are the ones that oppress humanity, who murder believers in the past,  today and the future.

God tells us through His word how he has destroyed those early ones with water and how one new one will be for all who had faith in Jesus, after the whore is destroyed.

Genesis 4:17,  Luke 17:27-28,  Revelation 14:8,  21:2.

The Third Man.

Holy Ghost/Spirit.

For the Christian God is more than one, he is three, father, son and Holy Ghost/Spirit. But it is only believers in the death and resurrection of Jesus who recieve the promised empowerment of this invisible man.

The New Testament tells us He is the comforter and He comes alongside believers to help us to serve, to pray to preach, to give our testimony.

The world cannot have Him, because they do not believe and are unrepentant?

John 11:25,  14:26,  Acts 2:33, 2 Corinthians 12:10, Ephesians 6:18.

Ascension and Return.

From forty days to 1000 Years.

Jesus spent forty days here on earth after He arose from the dead, He appeared to His Disciples and to reassure the many secret believers. He also reinstated Peter and appeared at one time to over five-hundred people. Then He had to return to Heaven to allow the Holy Spirit to be given to all believers.

These avents are all miracles in their own right, they are beyond the comprehension of the human mind and that is why believers have the Holy Spirit to help.

Jesus promised he would return and He will at the Fathers will, when He does he will rule on the earth for 1000 years and protect and defend the Kingdom of Israel.

Acts 1:6, 1 Corinthians 15:6, Revelation 15:3, 19:15, 20:4-7.

Science V Faith.

Why?

Science does not have to always be in conflict with faith, their are many Christians in medicine, astronomy and various field of science and there is no conflict.

Today there are scientists who want to divide the fied into two groups of believers and unbelievers and they are going down the road to make trouble for us believers.

There are many issues that some scientists are failing to address, such as cloning, genetically modified food, stem cell research, global warming alternatives and creation theory. They have concluded that they are right and the bible is wrong and yoe/we must accept their ideas or get out?

Job 38:1-41,  19-21,   Hebrews 1:10-11,   11:1-3.

Sexuality. Part-Two.

Jesus.

Many proponents of same sex marriage, who claim to be ‘Christians say ‘that Jesus in his ministry never spoke about homosexuality, but rather that we should practice love and not Judge others or each other.’

But they are wrong, because Jesus does speak about the Sin and the ultimate fate of those who practice it. If we claim to have a faith in Jesus and a relationship with God, we must adhere to His teaching in the bible. The bible says many things, such as not stealing or sleeping with another man wife. some of the language used is very graphic.

But god wants the best for us, if we are left to our devices, choices and selfishness. Then we end up in disaster. The bible is full of such accounts. With the Lord he pointed out a situation,. Later the Disciples and Apostles lead and inspired by the Holy Spirit within them wrote further instructions to the believers.

Matthew 10:15,  11:24,  2 Peter 2:6-8, (Genesis 19:5, 24-25),  Jude 7.
