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.

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.

The HARVEST Festival?

Another opportunity to reach  Out!

This time of the year is very traditional for many, especially in the country side, a time is made to give thanks to God for the fruits of hard labour and farming is a very unpredictable profession to be in with many a sad disappointment dependent on the weather and many other factors such as disease?

In the Holy Bible we find that Pentecost or Shavo’ut was also the harvest of the first fruits and the significance of it seems to many lost with the giving of the Holy Spirit to the early Ekklesia? This harvest signifies that believers empowered by the Holy Spirit will produce fruit in winning others to Jesus!

So which ever way we approach the thanksgiving  or Pentecost, we have the opportunity to invite others to receive Jesus into their lives! Much can be done during the Harvest, than just flowers and food and their is the ability to think up new things to keep the valued introduction and much more going?
