Fire People? One.

Living in the power of God!

When we are born-again we are given an internal fire or power that helps us to be active for God! There are many issues today in the Church, which stop believers from remaining active, such as criticism and unbelief!

But if we are empowered we will not stop, since our witness will be done in secret or rather we will not brag about it to others? 

At the end of the day our service for the Kingdom is to know that we are in partnership with Jesus and this is not a work of self!

John 1:7,   5:32,   Acts 23:11,  Philippians 1:5-6,  Hebrews 2:4.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

2015.

Being a born-again or convert to Christianity is all about pushing on and knowing that we have a future and are already a part of Eternity. Our calling and purpose as a believer in Jesus is to serve, to put ourselves out for others.

The bible encourages us to race on, push on, persevere for that prize, rather than to keep looking back. There is a time for reflection and it is always a good thing to do it for a while, but not to allow ourselves to dwell on it.

Luke 9:62,  Philippians 3:12,  Hebrews 11:16,  2 Peter 2:13.

Crib n Cross. Part-Two.

Born to Die.

The story of the baby Jesus, does not end after Christmas He grows up helping His earthly father Joseph the carpenter in Nazareth. We learn from the bible that He was a perfect child. John 6:42.

But Mary still had to clean up after Him, when a babe and toddler! He stayed behind in Jerusalem talking to the teachers of the Law. Luke 2:46.

But when rebuked He obeyed his parents.  Luke 2:51.

The story of Jesus life is about doing what mum and dad needed Him to do, until His time was ready for ministry of healing and then He had to go to the Cross/stake/tree for us.  Mark 14:21.

Patrick. Part-One,

Saint Patrick.

Perhaps one of the most Internationally well known Saints around the world from the U.S. to Ireland, but he is also the patron saint of Nigeria. Things are done in style and taste in the United States in relation to St. Patrick's day, by the large and long standing Irish community.

The 17th March will be marked by parades, dances and music and drink, but all of this actually has very little to do with the man himself and he probably would not approve of some of it.

We have a traditional story, filled with shamrocks and many other legends of the man. But much of what we claim to now about him is not true.

What is known about him, is that he was a born-again Christian, who first arrived in Ireland as a slave from south west England, at the age of about sixteen years old.

1 Corinthians 15:8-10,  1 Timothy 1:15-16.

Urban Legends..

New World

Everyone wants to be the hero of the environment, but not everyone will achieve their aims. Big or small, top or bottom is what makes this world. People achieve things in different ways, some good some bad?

Come here and find a better way, walk not by your sight, but by your faith. Be a frontline soldier not a back room bully. 

Have a New Life, Be Born Again with Hope, Love, Doing what is Right. Have changed attitudes of the mind and the heart, know the real peace, not the peace of men.

God Loves me, but hates my failure. John 3:16.

If I believe in Him, I will not die. 

He does not Judge me, He will save me. John 3:17.

Wages buys death, but His gifts bring Life. Romans 6:23.
