Tot wederzien....

Dankie Liza! Terwyl ons so vreemde tale praat:

Tot wederzien, tot wederzien.
Eens kom ik weer terug.
Dus wees niet bang het duurt niet lang.
De tijd verstrijkt zo vlug.
Tot wederzien, tot wederzien.
Al weet ik niet wanneer.
Maar niet getreurd wat opgefleurd.
Wij zien elkander weer.

Bon Voyage

GENIET DIT EN KOM VEILIG TUIS!

“Once saved, always saved”?

Is it possible for a child of God to sin in such a way that he/she falls from grace? What does the Bible teach?

Revival in the time of Andrew Murray

In 1860 Andrew Murray accepted a call to pastor the church at Worcester. His induction to the church coincided with a revival and missions conference made up of 374 South African ministers. The conference was planned for the specific purpose of encouraging spiritual revival and recruiting new workers and missionaries for the Dutch Reformed churches of South Africa.

Shortly after the conference, a meeting of young people was held at the church on a Sunday evening. It was at this meeting that the Spirit of revival unexpectedly broke out. The meeting moved along as expected, until an unassuming 15-year-old black girl stood up to pray. Mr. Murray’s associate, J. C. deVries, was overseeing the prayer meeting and gives us an eyewitness account of these extraordinary events. "On a certain Sunday evening there were gathered in a little hall some sixty young people. I was the leader of the meeting, which began with a hymn and a lesson from God’s Word, after which I prayed. Three or four others gave out a verse of a hymn and prayed, as was the custom. (Read more)

“Wasteful efforts”?

The action of the woman we read about in Mat 26, who poured an alabaster box of very precious ointment on the head of Jesus, was called wasteful by the disciples. In the same way, one can talk about the actions of David and three of his mighty men (2 Sam 23) as wasteful. (read on)
