Happy New Year 2024!

Jesus and the Law?

Many unwise believers today think that God has given up on His law and its application in our lives, but as we who have a personal faith should know that He has not and the Law of God is eternal!

Yes we are free from the curses of breaking the Law and its punishment, because Jesus fulfilled this for us on the cross and His rising from the dead!

But the law is still not to be abused or ignored and the ten Commandments are part of the 613 laws that cover all area of our lives, they are not archaic as some believe, because of where we might live in the world and we are advised to obey them in our relationship with Jesus, while also pointing them out to both Kosmon and to Ekklesia?

Exodus 20:1-17, Leviticus 19:22, Matthew 19:17-19, 1 John 4:7-21.

To Murder.

The definition of to murder and to Kill?

In the Old Testament we have the same word translated from the Hebrew to English of kill and murder Strongs H7523 Ratzakh (Ratsach), but the context is not the same as some just allow and this is because to kill someone could be an accident or one who is a soldier is employed in war to do so. Exodus 20:13.

To murder implies intent, the legal term being Malice after thought and thus we are in sin with God for doing this. Cain is the example of getting jealous of his brother Able and allowing sin to master him and commit the first murder.

The word used here in Strongs H6865 Qum (Koom) Genesis 4:7-8.

In the New Testament we are warned that there will be no murderers in Heaven. Strongs G5406 Phoneus. Revelation 22:15.

It is important to understand these areas in the light of the ongoing situation in Israel from the 7th October to the present, that there must be a definition between terrorism and the actions of the army of a democratic nation and the right to defend the people!

Lack of Preaching!

Fear?

Is it fear of the laws of the lands, or is it being lazy and hoping our gracious God will do it for us, as we lounge about hoping for that great revival to come?

Has prayer replaced preaching or is it seen as old fashioned and like many things in modern society old and not of any value?

God does not change, only we do and this has been foretold in the New Testament that people will grow cold, that truth is no excuse to stop, since many still want to hear and many will claim on the day of Judgement that they never heard.

John 3:3, 14-18, Romans 10:17, 1 Timothy 4:1-2, Hebrews 9:26, 10:10, Revelation 3:20.

Bear Fruit!

For God.

We all who believe have been set free and thus we are told in the book of the Romans, that our purpose is to bear fruit for our Father.

But in this context Paul is not writing in relation directly to winning souls, but to that of improving our character, that we are more Holy towards God and able to cope with the hostility that is around us.

We are precious to God and He wants the best for us, since we would be enabled to not get angry or slack in our service to Him, we would be stronger to counter the silly arguments at times the world try to throw at us?

Romans 7:11, (6:22), 2 Corinthians 10:5, Galatians 5:22, Ephesians 5:9.

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.

End of a Divine Reign?

British Queen Elizabeth-II Regina 8th September 2022.

The sad loss of the British Queen has left the United Kingdom fluxed, with a weak successor Charles-III Rex and an idiotic government that could start world war-III with both Russia and China and total economic collapse, leading to some serious rioting and a civil war by her daft policies to defend the rich?

Queen Elizabeth had a divine reign that will not, if never repeated again and what she has left, may too soon disappear from a unbelieving nation, that is even embarrassed by the mention of God or the recognition that she was Born-Again rather than what many want as a Roman-Catholic or High-Anglican?

Now she is asleep waiting to meet Jesus her Lord and Master at the resurrection of the dead and the final Judgement and not to hear or listen to the rubbish that is said about her in the media, politicians or even those in the Royal court!

Revelation 5:5, 7:5, 19:16.

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. One.

The Build Up!

These events mentioned in the Holy Bible are prophetic future and they will happen slowly, along with global warming and the heavens falling away, today many in the scientific community are starting to believe these parts of the Bible since there is no other explanation to be found any where else?

Persecution is no stranger to most believers around the world today, even it is becoming more so in western society with the forced LBGT+ and secularism, humanism and rationalistic agenda that allows no one to question it!

Backsliding, hate and betraying will be normal and we will suffer for our faith as people we thought were our friends gossip and lie about us!

Matthew 24:3-14, Verses 9-11, 1 Timothy 4:1-5, Jude 1:3-16.

Veritas!

What is Truth?

Nothing much has changed in the human psyche over the last two thousand-years, humanity still tells lies just the same way it ever has from the garden of Eden.

Sin remains an active enemy everyday in all of around the world, wither we know Jesus or not we will always find an excuse to justify untruths sad as it is?

Before Jesus went to the Cross Pilate was challenged by our Lord in relation to truth and he expressed the Roman view of society that lived on lies, much the same today in our political worlds nothing has changed there!

But God’s truth will stand the test of time and do you believe it?

Matthew 6:25, John 4:23-24, 14:1, 18:37-38.

Zechariah’s Prophecy! Part-One.

Luke 1:67-79.

We tend to over look this New Testament Prophecy, perhaps because it points to the Jewish race and to that of John, who would make a way for Jesus the Messiah to come!

But in these few verses is some invaluable lessons as to the events that were taking place in Jerusalem two thousand years ago and continue to this day in the form of anti-Semitism and even in Ekklesia by many who fail to understand what the Holy Bible is saying?

These human reactions prove that some who profess a faith, are not what they say they are, while others have been mislead into false or not fully understood teachings! Verses 69-71 sum up the connection of events past and present in the day of Jesus appearing and His role in redeeming the nation and all who believe in Him?

But those he came for rejected Him as much as many continue to so today!

Psalm 18:2-3, 132:17-18, Luke 1:32-33, Romans 9:4-5.
