Language Translations!

How many still to be translated for the Gospel?

It is amazing how many languages and dialects are in the world, when God cast out men from Babel and caused them confusion that was a big event, but it was restored in a way on the day of Pentecost, when the Disciples were speaking all in various languages!

Today with the advancement of A.I and the Internet many believers have access to resources that fifty years ago only missionaries working in far flung places could get?

Costings and what version of the Bible are the main issues to the lack of witnessing material and it is either old, badly put together and hard to access and this is perhaps the only problem we have in relation to time!

Geneses 10:5, 11:1, 7-9, Judges 12:5-6, Acts 2:7-12, 26:14, 1 Corinthians 14:11.

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.

The Interactive 2021.

Now we know that it is like to be a believer in a closed Nation?

Still many leaders are clinging to Church ideals that were established four hundred years ago, but this pandemic is proving that we have to change with the technology and the internet the Ekklesia is becoming more of an individual experience!

Meeting together in the years to come, may only be for limited reasons, the breaking of bread, baptism, marriages, child dedications and funerals?

This has been coming for some time, but traditionalism has ruled the day, the house Church movement was perhaps the first, while many Christian organizations are now online with devotional and daily readings, videos and other!

Matthew 18:20, John 4:23-24, Acts 2:42, 46, Hebrews 10:25, 1 John 4:6.

Virtual Church?

Thinking outside the Box!

We take too much for granted in the western world when it comes to Christianity, we believe up to this point that we were safe in our established traditionalism? But a minute bug has ended our ability to fellowship to break bread and to gossip, if not pray together!

Now in quarantine we have the Internet, various mediums of communications through Android and Apple systems and yet no one has come up with a virtual Church app?

We have almost virtual everything else, so why not meeting together and facing the real challenges of daily life?

It is not really known how long these lockdowns and re-lockdowns will continue for? Some unwise people are chancing it and it may be to their hurt and suffering if not death! Hope in God now comes to play and so does that personal relationship that some of us like to talk about, but might not really have?

1 Chronicles 29:15, Job 4:6, 5:16, Psalm 25:5, 42:5, 71:14, 119:114, Matthew 18:20, Acts 24:15, 1 Corinthians 14:27, 29, 2 Corinthians 1:7, Colossians 2:17, Hebrews 10:1.

The old story and new Tech!

EASTER is not Cancelled?

Most Churches now have an internet connection of some kind from those lovely downloads to worship and so on, perhaps not all are that great after all and we need still in leadership and preaching to do our own things?

We will use the net to speak to loved one and friends so why not a link up from home to home to share in this live event?

The Easter story is a key even to our own personal salvation, many believers are now quarantined with family and many great opportunities have arisen to link service, talk, bible study and preaching altogether with worship!

We hope that this Easter will see loved ones and friends saved in light of this unknown plague and the sudden silence on a vaccine or cure being found with much prayer for the old and infirm that is required?

Matthew 18:20, John 3:3, 15-17, Acts 20:7, 11, Romans 3:21-31, 1 Corinthians 5:4, 10:16.

101 Years round Two!

1918 to the Present?

It takes great leadership skills to help people with this new virus and not arrogance or laughing it off as was seen in 1918 with the estimated death’s of over fifty-million people and that apart from World War-I (1914-18).

Ekklesia leadership is greatly required also at this time to get the message of hope in Jesus will lead to salvation and that there is an Eternity for all of wither it is Heaven or Hell!

It is so hard to know what is driving some politicians around the world, since many feel safe and come across as uncaring! We have much to deal with in these last days and being to comfortable may not be such a good option in the work that we have to do?

Many have already turned back to the world and they are ineffective, so we must avoid them and not let their bad influences draw us away from Jesus our Saviour and Redeemer?

Psalm 91:5, Matthew 8:76, Luke 8:24, 2 Corinthians 7:13, James 1:14.

Sunday Evening Services! One.

No longer Popular?

Many fellowships today only have Sunday morning services and have ended their evenings for the pleasures of the television and other?

They see no value in pressuring their congregations into attending Church twice on a Sunday! But one has to say I think this is wrong, the opportunity to share the Gospel is slowly being eradicated and we will have to give God an account for missed souls?

Many in ministry have it easy, compared to normal 9-5 work and so it seems another chip off the block can be sacrificed? Many people today work in the gig economy and would like to break bread before or after work, to be fed spiritually and have the opportunity to bring a friend?

Isaiah 40:11, 56:11, Ezekiel 34:2, Luke 2:20, 1 Peter 5:2.
