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.

Unheard Messages!

Governments do not want the Truth?

Many people across the Kosmon today are crying out for wise leadership and truth, but they are faced with weakness, arrogance, indifference and lies!

Many listened to braggers, boasters, making promises they could not keep or based on false information and now we have to face the pain of these liars, as Nazi-Germany did in 1939-45 and what the U.S. has gone through with Donald Trump, what the Ukraine and Europe is facing with Zelensky, Brazil and other nations too hypocrisy!

God sees through these people and He warns us to be careful and not allow ourselves to be deluded by empty shouting words, but to be wise and heed what God is saying to us!

Joshua 7:1, Ecclesiastes 9:16-18, 1 Corinthians 1:18.

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.

The Holocaust/Ha Shoah!

Christian anti-Semitism, anti-Israel?

Replacement theology and 19thCentury German modernism are two evil roots against God and His people the Jews to cut them off from their inheritance!

These are modern facts in the Christian religion and it is leading to a denial of Biblical truth on many fronts, in relation to the events of the book of Revelation in having no practical application for believers today?

We are told in this last book of the Holy Bible and of the New Testament that the dragon will hunt down believers in the last times, for many today around the world that feels like it is already happening!

Revelation 12:3-17, 13:4-11, 16:13, 20:2, Lamentations 4:18, Micah 7:2.

Stephen!

The cost for loving Jesus?

Most of us will never have to face death for our faith in God, but many do around the world and more so during Christmas and Easter from deceived and sick people who fail to grasp the truth even about their own religions or atheism!

Many of us do face some form of intimidation, insult and attack from the world daily and it is hard at times to love these idiotic nasty people?

We can be attacked even in fellowship by our so called brothers and sisters, out of spite and jealousy, arguments boil over nothing and can lead to bitter roots something we are warned not to allow in our selves!

Stephen loved Jesus and spoke truth’s that the world could not excuse or hide from, very much as the religious men of Israel denied their Messiah, because He did not meet their standard!

This is a warning to us, that we have to try to reach His standards, knowing that we will fail and that love is one of many elements that make up the character of the Godhead under grace?

Acts 7:1-8:1, Romans 3:25, 2 Corinthians 2:7, Ephesians 4:32, Colossians 3:13, 1 John 1:9.

We hope that you can enjoy the Christmas season, even if you are isolated and that you will have a peaceful New Year?

EVIL! Two.

World War-I/II+ We Remember?

There is much pride in the human heart to remember the fallen of past wars and conflicts and it would seem honorable to do so, but not was all right in these two world wars and all wars!

Men in fear were treated as cowards and shot and their families not compensated with a war pension, greed and spite came to the fore, those who refused on religious grounds were either killed or rejected by society?

Meanwhile the suffering of nerve gas, high-explosive ammunitions left men with terrible if not horrific wounds and in the 1939-45 war many nations refused the Jews prior to the Nazi-Holocaust while others avoided their rescue and Britain maintained similar prison conditions in the Middle-East until Winston Churchill got challenged by the events?

Wars have to be fought to save our systems of politics and at one time supposed Christian values, but this is a smoke screen to cover arms sales and the pride of royal families, madness of dictatorship and excuses for sin and they will continue until even the Day of Armageddon!

Genesis 44:4, Numbers 13:32, Job 19:19, 35:12, Psalm 78:68, Proverbs 24:1, Ecclesiastes 9:3, Jeremiah 31:3, Hosea 11:1, Matthew 5:11, Luke 7::47, John 3:14-18, 12:43, 13:34, 15:9, Romans 8:37, Ephesians 2:4, Revelation 16:16.

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.

Gifts of the Holy Spirit!

What are they for?

A great debate rages in the Ekklesia today in relation to the gifts of the Holy Spirit, with many claiming that that time in the book of acts is over?

But if we take time and end our doctrinal blind spots we will take note that in 1 Corinthians chapter 12 and verse 4 we are told the essential reason, before hitting the juicy bits!

Gifts, service and activity are the essentials of being touched at His will by the Holy Spirit, one who will remain active and effective in the lives of all believers who remain in fellowship with God.

We cannot preach, teach, witness, share, talk about God without the Holy Spirit, we have to be touched and given each individually our gifting, so that we may serve, so that we will remain active no matter what Satan tries to use to draw us down?

Romans 15:17, 2 Corinthians 9:12, Ephesians 4:12, 2 Timothy 4:5, Hebrews 12:28, James 2:22, Revelation 2:19.

Angels Ministered!

Great Anguish.

Jesus was moments before His journey to the cross and our atonement, but in His human flesh he was in anguish and many believers may find themselves in these moments of great mental and physical pain from the evil people in this world!

Some modern translations do not have these verses in the text, how sad they have missed such an important point, that we too may go through periods of suffering and may even be attended to by Angels, as our Lord was?

We are warned to be careful about people who brag about the subject and dream also, but that must also be taken that Angels will help us, since Peter was released from Prison and the Apostle Paul saw Heaven!

Luke 22:43-45, Psalm 91:11-12.

Christian despair & Depression!

‘Not a bed of Roses?

The statement, ‘It is hard to be a believer, should not be under estimated, since many of us who are now long in the faith now the pain and costs that are involved as we progress in that race that the Apostle Paul encourages us with!

Ekklesia has much to answer to when it comes to depression, mental-illness and despair amongst believers? What was at one time referred to for missionaries is now widespread in the body, since many of us live in pluralistic societies that are hostile to Christians?

Nothing much has changed from the times of the pagan world of the early followers of the way to modern times, the world has turned back to the worship of nature and abandoned the God of the Holy Bible and many believers are starting to fall away, as we are told is to happen!

But we have a God who loves us and His son Jesus who died for us, we must run to Him and trust to endure and to press on? It is indeed very hard, but the price for us is too great to know give up or let go? Let us encourage one and another and help, pray, financials and a roof?

2 Corinthians 4:8-11, Psalm 56:2-3, Proverbs 8:10, 1 Peter 1:7, 4:12-14.
