Bible Translations!

King James most common by 87%?

This is what is claimed by many around the world that eighty seven percent of Holy Bibles are still the King James and these are in the most languages of the world, portions and booklets!

Yet it is known that the most popular translation of the Bible is the New Living and that is more so in richer western countries, while others such as the NIV (New International Version) and others modern English versions lag behind?

China now prints most of the worlds Bibles for all western publishing houses, yet they seem to lack copies of the Holy Bible and New Testament with portions of others being smuggled in probably the King James Version!

Romans 15:4, 2 Corinthians 15:3-4, 2 Timothy 10:13, 16, 4:3, 2 John 1:9-10, Revelation 2:20,

The time of the Jews is Over!

Antisemitism in Calvinism?

With the turn of the Protestant reformation and the liberation of believers from the Roman Catholic Church, also entered the false doctrine that the Jews could not be saved, because Paul had turned away from them!

Yet the book of Hebrews was an essential instrument in proving Rome was wrong in relation to the blood sacrifice that Jesus made for us on the tree of cursing and all the Jewish illustrations to the Law being fulfilled?

Satan is a slippery customer in causing division among believers not only in this matter but the many problems in the Ekklesia today over the movement of the Holy Spirit and the status of modern Israel not being the Biblical Israel, what ever that means!

Genesis 13:7-8, Psalm 56:6, John 3:14-21, Romans 3:21-31, 1 Corinthians 3:3, 2 Thessalonians 1:11, Hebrews 9:25-29, Revelation 7:4-7.

Not to be taken for Granted!

Antisemitism in Ekklesia is a sin and Gentiles are warned?

This time we will look at two passages in the New Testament that are generally ignored by many from the idea that once we are saved we cannot lose our salvation, but for the gentiles who are grafted in this is not true!

Israel is the root of this tree that the Lord God in His mercy and grace has allowed for us to be grafted into and the blindness of the Jews, can be lifted at any time for them to be rooted back to their own tree?

These are the rules of the Almighty and we need to heed them and not be flippant, as many are in accepting replacement theology and believing the time of the Jews is over!

We shall be disappointed to learn that it is only beginning with Israel now established by God in His promised land for them and not for us yet and the events are leading up to the restoration of the Temple in Jerusalem and the revealing of the man of Intrigue?

Romans 11:17-18, 2 Corinthians 3:14-16, 2 Thessalonians 2:11.

Ascension!

Leaving out the hope of Israel?

Very few believers mark this time or they clump it together with Pentecost, which again they have got all their facts wrong about and confuse the true picture of the Holy Scriptures once more!

The Disciples asked Jesus about the restoration of the Kingdom, but He told them that only the Father knew this, thus ending speculation a mistake made by many Christians over the past two thousand years?

Ten days later when the Holy Spirit was poured out in the courts of the Temple in Jerusalem, it was only the Jews who received it, but it was later given to the Gentiles!

These essential truths need to be applied today, if we are serious about our faith and walk with our Lord the Holy Messiah of Israel who is coming back for the believers and His Kingdom to be established in Israel, after the false messiah is removed and the Jewish people eyes will be opened to see the truth!

Acts chapters 1 and 2, Hebrews 9:25-28, Revelation 3:20 and chapter 7.

Can we apply…

Zephaniah 2:3-7 now for the Gaza Strip?

Many of us claim that God has not changes, but that He has given up on Israel and the Jewish race, with just the odd one saved, what a load of rubbish lies based on Replacement theology, which so complicates the Holy Bible, as gentiles first!

But the truth is that God has not given up on Israel and that there is no mention of the Philistines having any hold in the promised land?

Antisemitism is a terrible sin that most of the world has,, but as believers in the death and resurrection of Jesus our Final atonement for sin we must rid ourselves of this attitude, that one knows is common and widespread in Ekklesia!

Deuteronomy 32:10, John 3:3, 14-21, Romans 3:21-31, Hebrews 4:12-13, 9:26-27, Revelation 7:2-6.

A wall of Water!

The crossing of the Red sea.

Something that is very much in the minds of many to do with Israel today and again enemies trying to kill the Jews, out of jealousy and spite!

Rationalism has hit the Bible very hard in recent years to disprove the events of God and find an alternative answer through natural events instead of the Almighty powers of Spiritual forces?

In the Hebrew we have Suph Yam, translated sea of reeds, but how do we then define that a wall of water Hebrews (Chamah) was on each side of them as the crossed over from Egypt to Sinai and this collapsed, when the Egyptian followed.

Humanism, and rationalism are how the un-generated see the Holy Bible, but we are filled with the Holy Spirit and now under this time of grace we see the fulilment of all that was past!

Exodus 14:24.

The nation of Israel?

And the Holy Bible!

There are many Calvinists who refuse to identify the modern state of Israel as being that of the restored Israel of the Bible, because they are accepting replacement theology that tells them lies in relation to the establishment of the Kingdom, it also misguides them on the many relevant scriptures in the New Testament that speak of a true Jew and of the nation!

With the misunderstanding also comes anti-Semitism dressed up as denial even of the Holocaust and the idea that the Gentiles have replaced Israel instead of being grafted to the vine but never to the root?

If we really want to understand the fullness of the Book of Revelation we must be open to the fact, that after the anti-Christ is removed by Jesus, Israel will be saved! We cannot go back on the promises He made to His own chosen race, that are now blinded for the gentiles to come in and join the commonwealth of Israel!

In the light of Holocaust memorial day on the 27th January, many are refusing to mark it but would rather support the Palestinian cause, which to all Jews is proof of their hatred!

Matthew Chapters 24, Romans 7-9, The Books of Hebrews, James, Jude and Revelation.

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.

Psalm 104:4. Part-One.

Why are modern translations missing the King James Emphasis?

Modernism has a large role to play in undermining the original test as an alternative without giving the reasons as to why and thus the lay person is left confused!

But if an explanation in the foot note was given one would have a better understanding that the Hebrew, like the Greek has several meanings and thus we have a choice of them to use in preaching and teaching?

At the moment, the King James is becoming seen as archaic, yet despite the many modern versions of the Holy Bible, it remains the only one available to many around the world!

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.
