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?

Hearing the Truth. Two.

Stephen.

Stephen spoke the truth and for it he was attributed as the first Martyr of the Chistian Church!   Acts 7:1-60.

Today believers are still dying around the world, because we dare to speak the truth to a world full of selfies and selfishness? But we too were once blind and could not see this wonderful truth, this Love that God has for us?

1 Thessalonians 3:4.

Please do not stop speaking or sharing Jesus this season, because we do not know who will be chosen to join us soon at the Lords table to break bread and drink wine?

Matthew 12:18,  Romans 16:13,  1 Corinthians 10:16,   Colossians 3:12,   1 Peter 1:2.

1984. Part-Three.

Liberalism.

In this series we have looked at what George Orwell was seeing happening in Britain in 1948, Winston Churchill had become comfortable within the new conditions of World War-II (1939-45) and it seemed that those in the establishment were content for this system to continue.

In fact the term cold war could be the answer for them to justify the continuation.

Now we ae going to look at an opposite view of a very open state of human ideas of equality and liberalism and suprise, suprise it is nothing new.

Acts 6:9-15,  Psalm 27:12,  Proverbs 15:18.
