Coronavirus/COVID-19!

Helping people in fear and Panic?

This is where the Church comes into play in times like this, when one goes to get some soap in the local store only to find it all gone! One has to wonder has soap just been discovered by the masses, and what did they use before?

On a more serious note the media is causing more problems that solving a complex and unknown situation, special coverage but again fed dripped information to what is the truth? We should give thanks for the Holy Bible, since God is loving and merciful to all who trust in Him!

We have the opportunity to share our faith and talk to people, or we should not fear death if it would lead others to faith? Prayer is of great value but it must not be used as a sop to get out of preaching the truths?

DAY TWO!

The EASTER Story.

Much has been written about the events of Easter, the death of Jesus on the cross/stake/tree are the essentials of the power of our redemption and forgiveness of failures to the promise of the New Life or being Born-Again!

We also know of the much in connection to the resurrection of Jesus from the grave and again the fulness of the promise of Eternal Salvation, but the hours between these two tremendous events are hardly ever covered in detail?

We get but a glimpse of the burial of Jesus, the torn curtain in the Temple in Jerusalem and the lies that were put in place to dishonour these events! When Easter is over Pentecost is the next episode of the Christian Church, missing out the Ascension of Jesus!

Matthew 27:33-66,    Mark 15:47- 16:1,    Luke 23:55-56.

Identity!

‘Who am I?

Most people at some point in our lives stop to think this deep question, probably when we are going through a stressful period? It is a good question to both ask and ponder upon, because it makes us think that there must be much more to being alive and why are we here?

Creation, the universe and humanity are not complex flukes that science wants us to think, it was all by chance? The fallen nature of everything leads to an end or death, but the Holy Bible tells us a different version that is far more interesting than chance and flukes!

We were created by God before everything else was made that we see and understand! In some ways science has proved that we are made of materials that cannot be seen, such as atoms!

But our condition now is a fallen one, because of sin/failure entering in to spoil Gods order! This condition we have is a terminal illness, but healing can only be found by admitting our wrong, changing our attitudes and finding the forgiveness of God through the ‘Good works of Jesus death on the stake/tree and rising from the dead!

Deuteronomy 7:6-7,   Psalm 90:2,   John 17:24,   1 Corinthians 11:9,   Ephesians 1:4,   2:10,  1 Peter 1:20.

Issues?

Our lives!

Life is mostly about issues of all sorts and kinds, from the first moment we can understand our surroundings to the last moment before we enter Eternity our lives will be filled with the issues of choices to make or not?

We will find many causes, we will be upset and frustrated by many things! We will misunderstand others and misunderstood by the same and we will have influence because no matter who we are we all have a say in the society that we live or exist in?

Jesus knew all about human issues, with religion, with hypocrisy, with evil and with people who wanted to believe, but lacked the faith! But those who persisted and asked Him for help, were richly blessed!

Today, now is your opportunity to seek God, to knock and the door of your heart will be opened and changed forever?
