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.

The Chemistry of Luv?

Another area, where science cannot Fathom!

When two people meet in a room of many and the eyes meet so starts the chemistry that cannot separate them and this is beyond psychology as much as science, one may be attractive and the other not so in ones own estimations?

The Bible tells us that what He puts together no one must separate and this shows us that we humans don’t have to mate, we don’t have to seek anything, we have free will and choices, since many of never marry, while others live for themselves the sex more than the relationship of a commitment?

It is amazing that more songs have been written about love than any other subject and it shows that we are unique creatures more so because we have been created in the image of God!

Job 20:12, Psalm 6:4, 100:5, Ecclesiastes 9:9, Songs of Solomon 1:2, 2:3-5, 10, 8:7-9, Matthew 10:37, Romans 1:31, 9:25, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8.

Love and Marriage. Part-Two.

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.
