Jesus reveals Himself!

The purpose of his coming into the World?

Hours before his death, Jesus offers the same salvation, that we have who are born-again and Pilate refuses it!

Like today Pilate had no conception of the truth, since Roman society was full of lies and want by any means possible?

Jesus spoke about His Kingdom not being of this world, but also of His purpose coming into our world, but to Pilate he was not sure of anything since this was beyond his understanding?

But he knew his hands were tied by the religious leaders, since Jesus was really innocent!

John 14:1, 18:34-38, (37-38), Revelation 3:10.

What Ireland wants?

But what it really Needs!

In times past the people of the book wanted to have a king to rule over them, just like the nations and so they were given Saul son of Kish!

But over time he turned out to be a false leader, breaking the rules and turning to a medium, later God’s chosen man David became the King of his people and the nation!

Today people are seeking to be like the rest of the world, they want what they believe will be good and free for them, but that freedom is of a limited one that is for western society, where as in many other parts of the world their liberty is considered sin and moral filth?

1 Samuel 8:5, Hosea 13:10-11, Matthew 27:37, John 18:37, Acts 13:21, Revelation 19:17.

What Ireland needs today is to have King Jesus as their saviour and knowing that His return will bring them into eternity!

Luke 1:47, Philippians 3:20, Titus 2:13, Revelation 3:20.

Gruesome Destruction!

Turkiye and Syria.

Over four hundred miles of horrendous destruction has befallen mostly Turkiye and a swathe of Syria, which sadly once more our media refuses to report on for political reasons and not with the interest of human compassion?

Many of these areas effected may never see the rebuilding, since there has occurred a huge flux in the land mass of between one to nine meters in both raising and the sinking over two 190 miles of the land scape, thus increasing the flood or water plains after the winter making that land not viable to live on!

This shows to us the power of nature and that we humans have no ability to stop it, that remains within the domain of God alone! Just because we do not see it where we live, does not mean it will not happen and we could be in the same boat too?

Psalm 9:10, Isaiah 40:4, 45:2, Luke 3:5, Hebrews 2:13.

The Christmas Message!

More than peace and goodwill to All?

As we wonder about from time to time this season, we have noticed a great decline in the Christian story, even many Churches have no crib or any direct emphasis on the virgin birth and one has to wonder why?

Perhaps the fear of people, persecution or prosecution is the reason or they just have given up caring within their paneled walled homes!

But the essential message of Jesus entry into our world will not be lost for the whim of people and their silly ideas, it will remain strong and many this season will come to faith in the Living God?

Isaiah 9:6-7, John 3:3-8, 19-21. 1 Timothy 3:16.

Divided Africa!

Satanic powers at Work?

Many nations are in their respective dire situations are returning to their tribal identities over that of their nationhood and so the bloodshed continues!

The cut in International aid is not helping some who really need it and bad western managements has lead to much corruption, but this is because white society just throws the money and fails to account for it?

Satan is busy in this continent to cause more problems and take the people backwards rather than progressing forward to better times!

The Ekklesia despite all this negativity continues to grow and what was in decline one-hundred years ago is now booming with many saved and many new things being done for the glory of God!

Matthew 5:44, Luke 1:71, 74, Romans 5:10, 11:28, Philippians 3:18, Revelation 11:12.

God so Loved…! Two.

Old Story, New Message?

Easter is an old story that the world fails to want to understand and yet it will be told again, today with new technology and many people around the world will be saved from their past failures and allowed to enter in to the New Life of a personal relationship with Jesus and our Father!

Easter is about atonement for sins, once and for all time, the giving of the promised New Life and the need for many to find faith in these dire times!  Exodus 10:17,

We as believers have a great responsibility to share with the dying Jesus, with our loved one, friends and even enemies that, ‘For God so Loved the world, that He gave to us His one and only Son!  John 3:14-18.

Psalm 119:4,   Amos 5:4,   Luke 15:7,   John 3:3,   14:1-6,   Acts 3:19,   Romans 6:22-23. 

God so Loved…! One.

EASTER is On?

Despite the terrible way the world is in at the moment, with the emphasis taken off Islamic battles and sectarian killings, humanity has poisoned itself once more in a pandemic disease situation!

But apart from the need to self-isolate and to keep the quarantine in place, we must thank God for technology and the Internet that is keeping us seeing each other over the thousands of miles?

Easter is on, because we can share, sing and praise God through various platforms such as Skype and You Tube! We can hear the word and share our lives with loved ones and make this Easter intimate and special and try to reflect of what was achieved for us by Jesus on the cross and His rising from the dead?

Nehemiah 1:11,  Psalm 55:1,   86:1,   Jeremiah 36:7,   Mark 11:24,  John 3:3,   7-9,   14-17,   Acts 4:12,   Romans 3:21-31,   James 5:16.

The Value of Christmas? Two.

A time of answers and Miracles!

The Christmas story is full of answers and miracles, it shows us a loving God who is giving us His one and only Son so that we might believe and be saved back into a personal relationship with Him!

But the world chases after its own answers believing that psychology, sparkling things and money will fill the voids of doubts, disappointment and pain? People turn to alcohol, to tech, to financial security and some to the religion of their choice believing that by austere living they can purge themselves?

Salvation is only found in Jesus and that of seeking His forgiveness and turning away from our pasts knowing that He will give to us a New Life!

Luke 1:46-56,    67-79,    2:25-32,    34-35,    36-38,    John 1:1-5,    3:3,    3:15-16,    Galatians 3:13,    4:4-5.

Nigeria in conflict Again?

Like much of Africa!

We only hear what the media sometimes wants to tell us about what s going on in the world? The situation in Nigeria is complex as it is many other places, but one has to wonder if Iran might be trying to stir up some sectarian conflict as it probably has in Yemen?

Many nations on the continent of Africa have never really got over their break from the various colonial powers that illegally ruled them in the 19th Century? Counter revolution has been the only way for many to get was needed done instead of seeking a democratic way!

God owns our world, even thou Satan has been cast down to wonder in the remote parts of it and cause trouble working through human weakness of our inherited sinful condition! It is we who must seek the Lord for our Salvation knowing that His one and only son Jesus has made the final atonement for our sins!

Genesis 10:5,   Psalm 9:5,  17,  47:3,   59:8,   John 3:3,  14-18,   Acts 4:12,   Romans 3:22-23,   Philippians 1:30,   1 Thessalonians 2:2,   Hebrews 4:12,   20:32.

Twenty-Nineteen?

What to Expect!

Going by the years that have gone past in our individual lives, about the same? We all do hope of better things, peace, prosperity, love, kindness and much more that is good and beneficial in many ways!

But we also have to face the many realities of life and that is of disasters and death, that must come to all of us eventually! 

The New Year 2019 also brings us opportunities in relation to where we stand with God today in our lives, the possibility of New Things and also of Salvation in the full assurances that Jesus will forgive us and save us from our failings!

Leviticus 19:26,   John 4:23-24,   Acts 1:7,   Colossians 2:2-15,   1 Thessalonians 5:1,  Hebrews 11:5.
