We are abused, but we press On!

Mission and Leadership.

One cannot say, ‘Today that many in the western Ekklesia go through this set of circumstances in the palatial panelled homes and insurance policies, holding anti-Semitic views and much other worldly rubbish?

We wonder why we no longer have revivals and if we do, they are not what they once were! Even one hundred years ago many famous preachers pointed out the lounging of missionaries on the field on the continent of Africa and many other far flung places?

Here we are challenged by these Apostles going out to share Jesus in hostile societies and unbelieving Jews, with very little of comfort, except they had faith and the strength to trust God and in the process we have the book of acts, telling to us the growth from the Way, ‘Hedos to Ekklesia and two thousand years of continued growth.

1 Corinthians 4:11-13, 2 Corinthians 11:23, (Matthew 8:20), Lamentations 3:45.

Blessing God!

Many believers only see it the other way?

But in the New Testament we find two passages in the Gospels in relation to two men blessing God, one in relation to John the Baptizer and the other in the Temple at Jesus’ circumcision. Luke 1:64 and 2:28 respectively.

Zechariah could speak and Simeon had lived long enough to see this day of both the last and greatest prophet John and the Messiah.

Many people today are living a long time again and some believers will live long enough to see our Lord returning on the clouds of glory, but even more so since we live the this time of Spirit and truth John 4:23-24, we should bless the Lord everyday both in prayer and in worship!

Hearing and Doing!

Righteousness and Justification?

For hundreds of years the Jews were caught in a legalistic trap and they have maintained that now for the last two thousand years, since they are blinded by God so that the Gentiles might come into faith.

We who are saved under grace must be aware of legalism creeping into our walk with Jesus, but I think this verse, gives to us the answer and if we do, what we hear from the word of God we are doing well.

Discipline in the Christian life/walk is invaluable, but let us keep the application of doing right in relation to the commandments?

Exodus 20:1-17, Romans 2:13, Galatians 2:16-17.

Pro-Israel Christians pulling Back?

Israel’s right-wing anti-Christian Laws!

The problem with U.S. Ekklesia is that they do not know enough of their Bibles in relation to Eschatology and the end times, when Israel will not want, what it considers to be anti-Semitic to its culture?

Judaism is legalistic and it only sees Islam as being more close to what it believes in relation to a shared ancestor Abraham, while Jesus/Yeshua known to us is an imposter and they want nothing of Him!

The other reason is that Israel sees the Christian community as pro-Palestinian and hypocritical when it comes to the word of the Tanakh or our Old Testament that Elohim commands Israel to rid the land of these peoples?

In the book of Romans the Apostle Paul tells us that, ‘the Jews have been blinded, so that the gentiles can come into the commonwealth of Israel or that should rather be the Kingdom (Basilia).

Since they are blinded to the truth, they will want to restore the temple in the area of the Dome of the Rock or Mount Moriah and thus we learn from Daniel and from 2 Thessalonians this will be the place of the desolation and bring on the return of the real Messiah Yeshua/Jesus for us, but for them Ha ‘Moshia/Anti-Christ.

For many believers reading this world-wide, you encompass the Holy Bible and praise the Lord for that, but in the west to much doctrines and replacement theology has blinded many from the truth!

John 12:40, 2 Corinthians 4:4, 1 John 2:11.

deliberate!

Genocide, it has not stopped and it will happen again?

Tomorrow marks European Holocaust memorial day and in the light of what is occurring in the Ukraine, much hypocrisy is masking the truth about the ethnic cleansing of Russians living in the eastern area by Ukrainians since 2008!

Something that both the United States and the European Union have ignored to justify a proxy war with Russia and continue the racial anti-Russian felling as well as anti-Semitism to Jewish businessmen worldwide, while trying to promote a new revised history of world war-II (1938-45)?

Since the Nazi holocaust, there have been as many numerous genocides, some systematic others racially based anarchy and with them millions have died over factionalism, doctrine and other and if we think they have ended, we are only fooling ourselves!

Our human condition of inherited sin proves that we cannot change our ways, even believers cannot overcome some issues in our anger and frustrations, when we let Satan have a foothold in our lives, by not fully trusting God to intervene on our behalf!

Job 18:4, Psalm 69:2, Proverbs 1:15, Matthew 5:21, Galatians 5:20, Ephesians 4:26, 1 Timothy 2:8, James 1:20.

Boldness without Fear?

To preach the Gospel, despite being Persecuted!

Most who are reading this blog will be from a persecuted background and one that is continuing by wicked people, who take pleasure in hurting others!

It is hard to bear the name of being a Christian in most of the world today, since many lands are closed due to religious idolatry or atheistic unbelief, but for us despite all these factors we have more of a desire to preach, to talk, to witness and teach about our Jesus, who has set us free from the coming destruction that humanity is bringing upon itself?

The Apostle Paul was one who was not afraid of telling others, even the Imperial Guard of the Roman empire knew about his and probably man were coming to faith!

Fear should not stop us, we must have a passion to reach the lost in this world, I speak from my depravity and the love that God showed me with mercy as he has also done for many of you!

Acts 4:31, 2 Corinthians 2:12, Philippians 1:13-14.

Intrigue & Lawlessness?

End Times!

Many Christians have abandoned the fulness of this revelation to pursue the doctrine of a all loving God that accepts all and tolerates sin, but the Bible does not support this limited understanding of the creator?

On the other hand legalism has entered as a key factor of Evangelicalism and it is misleading in several areas of denying the Jewish people their promises as now defunct and that Ekklesia has replaced the Kingdom of Israel by another! Much of this stems from the German Lutheran reformation and the false ideas of several misguided concepts, that where never questioned since they would have exposed anti-Semitism that remains rife to this day.

All of these factors are reflected on to local community and society, rather than the other way around and Satan once He has a foothold on us He will not let go! The Apostle Paul writing to the early Church warned of His ways, along with Matthew/Levi and the Prophet Daniel four hundred years earlier!

Daniel 8:26, 11:21, Matthew 7:23, 23:28, 2 Thessalonians 2:1-7 (3).

What we signed up for?

Our agreement with God!

Many believers find after years of service that they get left behind by the next generation and we may at times feel why did struggle so much for?

In this last age of human history there has been some dramatic changes, motorised transport, the invention of television and now the Internet, Space travel, electric cars, hydrogen surpassing the burning of fossil fuels and nuclear power if not war?

We may have written our own tracts, preached and taught, while today people use apps, watch videos on their phones and tablets and share via the web, even with the continuing Pandemic ekklesia is moving in to virtual rather than physical!

What we need to do is accept and be glad that younger people are getting saved and that our experience of life may be of help to all who are struggling?

Matthew 20:9-11, Luke 15:31-32, Romans 3:23, 6:23.

End Times. Three.

Deception is Rife!

We have now come to the end of this series of three postings and we are to deal with the world (Kosmon) in deception and one could say, ‘This is already happening with a shut down to the media, cutting Russia out of the world stage and attempting to undermine China over it claim to Taiwan?

But it is a bit more serious as the Kosmon and Ekklesia has accepted the teachings, if not by force the LBGT+ movement, which is contradictory to Biblical teaching and if this has happened what is coming next?

The Book of Revelation is about many events and their order has been much in discussion by theologians for the past two thousand years, but when we take Israel out of the truth of what is in this last book, then everything Satan wants to throw at us will follow and is happening now!

Matthew 24:24, Acts 2:19-21, 1 Thessalonians 2:5-7, Revelation 16:14.

End Times. Two.

World Events!

Rumours of wars, nations gathered, against the anointed one, but we are clearly told by our Lord , ‘Do not be Alarmed!

Unfortunately we have too many clergy people who make predictions about world events, wars, crises and other things, some to do with Israel and others the Ekklesia and many if not all never happen?

We must stick to what the Holy Bible is teaching us in the Prophetic and not go off on tangents that will not only ruin the preacher, but also the hearers and thus we bring the wrath of the Almighty on us for abusing His words and not mans conception that is a very popular concept today that justifies much sin!

The end is coming and Israel is the focus of Gentile hatred as it always has been, but now it is to be far worse and we believers will suffer with the people of Israel, until Jesus/Yeshua/Isa/Isus is revealed and Satan is defeated!

Matthew 24:6, Mark 13:7, Acts 4:25-26, Psalm 2:1-2, 46:6, Revelation 20:8.
