Have faith... JUMP!

"Fear looks; faith jumps. Faith never fails to obtain its object. If I leave you as I found you, I am not God's channel. I am not here to entertain you, but to get you to the place where you can laugh at the impossible." Smith wigglesworth

Gee jy om vir die kerk langs jou?

Gee jy om vir die kerk langs jou? DIT is wat Philip Rosenthal vra, want by feitlik ALLE kerke is die gees van liberalisme besig om toe te naam “Unhealthy backsliding churches are generally in denial about their backsliding and their leaders get very angry if anyone points that out to them.” Lees meer hier: http://emergingthreat.blogspot.com/2013/08/do-you-care-about-church-next-door.html

BELHAR: Die ou “terugkeer na apartheid”- bangmaak storie?

“Niemandt meen as die NG Kerk Belhar sou verwerp, sal dit wyd gesien word as ’n terugkeer na apartheid.” “Baie gemeentes en lidmate wat reeds positiewe besluite oor Belhar geneem het nie, sal moeilik daarmee kon saamleef. Hy vra van lidmate ’n ruimhartigheid teenoor mense met ander sienings as hul eie.” Aldus die AS- moderator, prof Nelus Niemandt. Word hier verwys na suidelike streek-sinodes wat alreeds Belhar as belydenisskrif aanvaar het? Hierdie berig bevestig my vermoede dat die plannetjies met die AS voorlegging 'n slim set is om die suidelike streek-sinodes se "kar-voor-die perde"- foutjie te probeer regstel: http://www.beeld.com/nuus/2013-08-23-belhar-verwerp-terugkeer-na-verlede

Sharpen that axe!

Ecclesiastes 10 verse 10 ( The Message): “Remember: The duller the ax the harder the work - Use your head: The more brains, the less muscle”. Abraham Lincoln must have known this verse in the Bible – this is what he said: “Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”

Nameless women in the Bible

“There is no satisfactory answer to the silence of Scripture regarding the identity of its nameless women. George Eliot once remarked that, “The happiest women, like the happiest nations, have no history.” But many of the happy—and unhappy &--;unknown Bible women left their impact upon history. They played their part in important events, but their signatures are not attached to their service.” Just see the LONNNNGG list of nameless women, here: http://www.biblegateway.com/resources/all-women-bible/Chapter-3-Nameless-Bible-Women
