Practice.

We are at this day of romance and love, but in these islands and also in N-America many will not be able to get together tonight or even this weekend. Love is not all about meals, cars, romance and roses, especially when we who have faith in Jesus know it is much more.

Today and throughout the next few days we will have the opportunity to share the love of Jesus within us, with those around us. This may be in providing a free place of rest, someone to confide in, cooking meals and so it goes on.

We must not let ourselves be selfish in these acts, expecting a big thank you. Instead we must just do it not expecting anything in return.

Matthew 5,  5:40-48.

Love and Sex.

Today people are claiming that they are born the way they are, the killer, the Gay, selfish, good?

But this is nothing new for if you read the book of Ecclesiastes  ‘Nothing is new under the Sun.’

This is the truth, humanity is in the circle or cycle of Sin. God does not forbid us to love, we can love our cat and dog or other pet, we can love people, even of the same sex.

But we cannot have sex with our cat or dog, man or woman, that is outside normal relations between a man and woman.

Everything that is not within His order is evil and abhorrent to Him.

Exodus  22:19,  Leviticus 18:22-23,  19:5,  20:13,   20:15-16,  Deuteronomy 27:21,  Romans 1:26-27,  Jude 1:7.

The World.

The world and the people in it make their own choices and have ideas about certain and yet everything. The Church/Ekklesia or family of God, the claimed followers of Jesus death and resurrection and His return are different from the world.

We who claim to be believers in Jesus have accepted Gods ways, not the ways of those outside us. Yet today many ‘Christians live in Sin, in contradiction to the teachings of the Bible. Homosexuality is now accepted by many and many ‘Church leaders are ‘Gay’ and married as Gay couples.   Genesis 2:24,   Matthew 19:5-6.

Yet all of this goes against the teaching of the Bible.  Genesis 19:5-8,   Leviticus 18:22,  Romans 1:26-27,  Revelation 21:8,  22:15.

Immigration. Part-Three.

Orphans and Widows.

We tend to make very quick assumptions and judgements in relation to immigrants coming into the UK, without caring to examining first the issues in their own lands that have lead them to come here.

We also tend to ignore that there are orphaned children and widows and because of this we find blanket statements, of indifference and arrogance to reject victims as scroungers.  What we do in reality is  fail to want to admit to ourselves is all the waste in our own society and communities of lazy people, who refuse to do the dirty jobs that immigrants will do?

Exodus 22:22,   Job 31:16-17,  James 1:27.

On the Road to Emmaus. Part-One.

Travellers.’

All of us are on a journey through life, many of us know were we started from but we do not really know were we are going. These two men were going home from Jerusalem to Emmaus, walking about 7 miles when Jesus met them. but they were not aware of Him?  Luke 24:13-35, Mark 16:12-13.

As we see as the story progresses that they had a good understanding of all the key events over the last few days, but their hearts were not right. They wanted Jesus to be the great prophet and the deliverer of Israel from Roman occupation. Luke 24:19, 21.

What are we looking for Jesus to be for us today? Many people say that God is a God of Love and they live their lives to suite their wants and pleasures, while at the same time not believing in who He really is.

Love and Marriage. Part-Three.

‘Lust is not love.’

Many relationships are built on a false foundation, that of Lust. When problems arise there is no relationship, friendship or desire for partnership, because it was all based on sexual pleasure, fancy and self centered motivation. Lust is about getting ‘what I want and by force if necessary.’

Lust outside marriage as well as within, ultimately leads to disaster. In marriage many find it hard to push one, so they look for the greener field over the hill’. Later after all the pain and the hurt of marital breakdown and divorce, they find that field was the same as the one they left.

Jesus had much to say about marriage, lust and divorce.  Matthew 5:31-32,  Exodus 2o:17,  21:7-11, Deuteronomy 21:10-14,  24:1-4, Proverbs 6:24-25, 1 Corinthians 10:6-7, Ephesians 4:22.

Not everyone will marry.

Marriage is not for everyone, some cannot, others it just never happens and some may have committed to a vow of Celibacy, for many varied reasons. Others like their own company. God is loving and merciful and understands each individual  situation.

But God does not tolerate selfish ambitions and rebellion towards Him. Evil may continue on the earth for now, but one day all people, both the saved and the lost will have to give Him an account.

We may laugh at God and the Bible now and mock, but if we do not repent, change our mental attitudes towards Jesus and His sacrifice for our Sin and failure, we will be eternally cut off from God’s presence.

Deuteronomy 23:18,  Matthew 7:6,  1 Corinthians 6:9,  Galatians 5:19,  Luke 16:19-31,  Revelation 22:15.

Marriage.

God ordained for man and woman marriage. Many people today believe that marriage is for everyone and anything?  But if we claim to believe and follow the teachings of the bible, we will see that this is not so.

In a few days time loads of people will long for that Valentine card and will spend and enjoy Saint Valentines day, as a time of sharing love and romance. Couples single and married will come together to enjoy each others company, but the end result must be a relationship in union with God. Genesis 2:18-24,  Matthew 19:4-6,  Mark 10:6-9.

Everything that is outside this union of Covenant of Marriage is from the selfishness of the heart.
