Immigration Issues!

Effecting Europe and the United States?

People and governments want people to leave, because they fear a spike in crime, but in the U.K. most of the crime is committed by West-Indians and Nigerians and not those who are seeking their right to ask for asylum, a right promised from the days of empire!

In the U.S. it has more to do with illegals over staying and the problems with narcotics coming in from S-America, that needs to be curtailed and it is being hit, but this is only for show the real numbers is staggering and many white Americans are well known to be involved?

In the Gospel of Luke we have three accounts in relations to foreigners doing the right things, when religious Jews turned a blind eye, it proves that we cannot paint all the people with the same brush and we cannot judge the unmarried or those who are seriously ill with Aids and other dangerous infection!

Luke 10:25-33. 17:16-18, John 4:9, Romans 12:2, Hebrews 7:25.

What does it Mean!

God will not hear our prayers through a Cloud?

So one could say, ‘Don’t pray to Him on a dull day?

There has to be something more here to this passage, than this simple claim, in that He does not hear the prayers of all in their suffering, in this case it was Israel and their failure to repent and when they sought, much like Esau they were turned away!

Today the middle-east is in crises, but does Allah answer the prayers of Muslims, or because of the condition of their hearts full of bitterness and hatred, He refuses them?

What is this cloud made of, it must be something more than an Earthly cloud, more of a closed door in the Heavens, something for now is far beyond our understanding and it may be revealed to us in Eternity!

Lamentations 2:8, 3:44, Genesis 10:14, 27:34.

Our need of Salvation?

The Christmas Message!

For our lost world, both physically and Spiritually, for some of us this is the season of ekklesia unity and family, for others ministering it is the poor, the food banks, the lonely and the older folks?

We may all still like to send cards, give presents and celebrate with tradition thrown in, but the world has commercialized the season to cancel the message that Jesus, the God-Man came into our world two thousand years ago to save sinners and bring salvation to all who would have faith in Him!

We are entrusted with a message that remains today as fresh as it did them and our time is running out as the night of the apocalyptic era is approaching!!

Acts 13:23, 32-33, Psalm 2:7, 132:11, Hebrews 9:25-28, 10:10.

HELL!

The refusal to warn people about Hell?

This is becoming a new thing in western woke society to avoid upsetting others, with the connotation of archaic words and causing offence, when truth is being replaced with lies and the Ekklesia refuses to take responsibility or recognize in fear of being persecuted?

But Hell is real for wicked and unbelievers, it is also for those who rebel within being saved or who deluded by wrong teaching and wonder off into ungodly things, which we looked at last time with the Pitfalls of the faith!

Hell is real because Jesus said so and we are warned that what we term now as a God of Love will do this to the above mentioned

Matthew 5:29-30, 10:28, Mark 9:48, Luke 16:23, 25, 2 Thessalonians 1:9, 2 Peter 2:4.

Prophecy?

Preaching to warn Ekklesia!

Not all always seems to be right in many fellowships when it comes to the services, the lack of preaching the Gospel message for over worship is one area that is lacking the influence of honesty and integrity in society?

The fervent preaching where it is done can become more of the man, rather that God and the balance is lost on the truth, and placed on personality?

We need to focus on the fact that it is the Lord that is leading us and not us leading ourselves?

2 Samuel 23:2, 2 Peter 1:20-21, 2:1-3.

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.

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.

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.

We need each Other?

As Believers!

Meeting together is hard for many of us in closed countries, some religious others unbelieving by state control? But for others it is illness, forgotten in the numbers, rejection, being outcast for mistakes, mental-illness and other?

God only wants things for a time to teach people to try harder and not fall backwards, but get up say sorry to Him first and get moving again!

We should know that it is hard to be a ‘Christian, but its worth it, since we are a saved people with a eternal hope and purpose and we have been empowered by the Spirit of God to reach out to others and to see souls saved!

We are also a people of prayer, of communicating with our creator and knowing that He hears and answers our prayers, heals people, influences governments and leaders even without them being aware of their right actions with integrity and that our Lord is coming back for us at the end of the ages!

John 16:7-9, Ephesians 5:21, Jude 1:15, Revelation 6:9-10.

EVIL! One.

The World/Kosmon.

We have all as believers come out of the world, its ways, selfishness, achievement, lies, filth, sexual pleasures, theft, financial gain, and walking over others?

For some who claim a faith in God, some of the above mentioned is fine for them, then the problem is that they have either turned back or that they are not fully saved, or worst still religious imposters?

Evil is the basis of sin, but we know that some people are more evil than others and other deliberately provoke God in their sin! Intimidation, bullying, dishonest gain, tax dodging to sexual sins of lesbianism and homosexuality, while even wearing the cloth and claiming the love of God?

But God sees through our motives and it is only He who knows everything, wither He acts now of tomorrow or never until the day of Judgement that ball is in his court alone!

Genesis 6:5, 13:13, 38:7, Deuteronomy 31:18, Job 1:1, Psalm 14:4, 34:16, 55:15, Matthew 5:11, 24:12, Mark 7:21, Luke 6:9, John 3:20, Acts 8;22-23, Galatians 5:21, Colossians 3:5.
