illness!

Happy 2023?

One is so sorry not being able to write for the past five weeks due to illness and missing Christmas and much more!

As believers we will be attacked by the enemy from time to time, it is expected and we have to just bear it trusting our Lord that He is with us as we go through it?

The Holy Bible is full of sickness, suffering and who God has interacted with us to warn, to heal as we see that most of the ministry of Jesus was the healing of many who were sick, but it did not stop when he ascended, the Apostles also faced these problems themselves and with others it was and remains something of a challenge?

Psalm 41:3, John 11:4.

No Palestine in God’s Plan!

Restored Israel?

The New Testament, if not the Holy Bible makes no mention of a Palestinian State, with its capital in Jerusalem (Al-Khuds), despite the claims of the United Nations and the world community?

The concept of the two state solution and the idea of a road map to peace in the Middle-East all stem from the British and French carve up of the region in 1919 around the time of the fall of the Ottoman Empire, but during this joint European process, the locals were never consulted on the plans!

In 1947 the British gave up on the region, after being caught out doing almost the same thing as the Nazi’s in relation to the Jews who were fleeing the concentration camps of Poland and Germany. Meanwhile the UN gave Tel-Avis the status of an new nation Israel.

God tells us that He will restore the Kingdom of Israel and that the events leading to the false Messiah and the rebuilding of the Temple will be for that purpose and the Return of our Lord Jesus Yeshua Ha’ Adonai and the End approaches!

Acts 1:1-11, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4, Ezekiel 28:6-9, 2 Timothy 3:1-3, Revelation 13:6-7.

By faith Alone?

The conundrum of the Reformation!

Martin Luther added in the word alone to the translation of the Holy Bible to German and English to emphasise his point in relation that only faith saves!

But the original Greek manuscripts never had the word alone, since faith was already known as the key to knowing God!

The problems for Martin Luther like or loath him was he had ninety six issues with the Roman Catholic Church, which he questioned and then had no choice but to break away from?

Faith in itself encompasses much, but the Latin translation from the Greek may have deliberately blocked this truth off, so that made the Pope infallible as the leader of the Universal Church.

Today occasionally if not commonly many new words are being added to the Bible to get a clearer meaning, one must be careful to not go beyond what is being said? Because some of this can be used to change the meanings and justify sin, since we remain fickle in our nature!

Romans 1:17,   3:28,   5:1-2,   Galatians 3:11,   Philippians 3:9,   Hebrews 11:6-7.
