A staggered Season!

 Easter-Pesach-Easter.

This is a year when Western Easter does not par with the Jewish Passover and the Eastern Church is further on still in the calendar?

So many will have the opportunity to come to faith and not many excuses since they will prove to others by their actions that they are liars and there is no truth in them!

But we must be patient in not forcing what we believe on to others, say what we can and leave it at that, knowing really that God is in control and they are free to choose their destiny?

Amos 5:4, John 3:3, 14-21, Acts 4:26, Romans 3:23, 6:23, Hebrews 9:26-27, 10:10, 18, 1 John 1:8, Revelation 3:20.

The Christmas season Approaches!

 Great Opportunities?

Christmas and Easter have the biggest times to share the Gospel message in the hope of leading the world to the truth and understanding what it's all about, rather than the commercialism and gluttony of the seasonal holiday?

We know the truth of this time, but how to get it over to the world can be tougher, since they are blinded by Satan and His lies to what we have to say to change their hearts to receive the true light of the star of Jacob, the morning stare, the, 'I Am the light of the world!

Numbers 24:17, John 12:46, 2 Peter 1:19.

We also know the story and this with a few verses may be enough to reach them, love being a key factor since this is what people long for in this society of rejection, indifference and ignoring the truth of real like for that of feelings and constant fantasy?

Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Isaiah 9:7, Luke 1:32-33, Amos 5:4, Matthew 7:7-8, John 3:3-18, Acts 4:12, Romans 3:22-23, 6:23, Hebrews 4:12-13, 9:26.

Veritas!

 Truth?

Easter is once more just a week away, when many will be coming to Church for one reason or another?

We have a great opportunity to share Jesus with them or to invite that hard in the community and discover he or her are future pastors and/or missionaries!

Is not God lovely that He can take the Sh1t like we once were and make us into His own New people, if He has done this for us what can He do and keep doing for others, loved ones, family, enemies, friends, work mates etc?

Genesis 42:21, 1 Kings 17:24, Psalm 15:2, Proverbs 12:17, John 4:24, Romans 2:8.

'On the verge of a world Plague?

 Omicron can cross to Rats!

We are living in dire times and no one is admitting to anything in relation to this virus and its mutations, with the latest news, things are only going to get worse?

But the Holy Bible has already told us that plagues are coming and we must try not to worry, because the end is drawing near!

If we believe and live by faith nothing will worry us or should not?

But from time to time Satan will attack us, but we must not loose heart this Christmas and New year, we again have the opportunity to share you with family and friends!

Exodus 9:14, Habakkuk 3:5, Matthew 6:28, Mark 13:11, Luke 12:22, 1 Peter 3:14,  Revelation 15:1-8.

Notting Hill Carnival! Two.

Acid, guns and Knives?

Another year another opportunity for the gangs to spoil the event for all the others, including the many foreign tourists and another year for the new locals wanting to see a final end to this unwanted street party?

Time will tell if it will last, once known for its race riots, today it is associated with criminals, drug dealers and thieves! Time will also tell if the Hackney and Brixton events will finally replace it and spread out to more local parades that can be controlled?

People want to enjoy themselves and west-Indian culture has nothing to do with criminal activity, but was once based on a Christian festival that was adapted over the years! Carnival should be inclusive, but all cross community for it to diverse, grown and continue to be the best of the best?

Psalm 68:24,   Isaiah 63:1,   2 Corinthians 2:14,   Colossians 2:15,   Numbers 16:26,   Psalm 112:10,   2 Peter 3:17.

Summer Opportunities? Two.

Every moment an Opportunity!

As believers our main mission is to share our faith in love and win others to Jesus, as we were to won to Him! This witness has to be done in kindness, but also with a warning of the grave consequences that if this message is not heeded disaster lays ahead!

We live in an age of the doctrine of the Love of God and this is true up to a point and that of sin? The bible has not changed in relation to what God has said about sin, only that we who believe by faith have had the law fulfilled for us by Jesus death on the cross/stake/tree!

But when this time of grace or Gods favour is over comes His wrath of Judgement and His conditions will be met before Eternity, which is the final dispensation!

Psalm 5:11,  Proverbs 18:21,  Matthew 3:7,  John 3:15-21,  31-36,  Acts 4:12,  Romans 3:23,  5:9, 6:23,  Galatians 5:14,  Ephesians 2:4,  Colossians 1:28,  3:8,  1 Peter 1:8,  1 John 2:5.

EASTER. Two.

Cross and Tomb!

Jesus died on the cross/stake/tree between two criminals, murderers who deserved this death!

Many events took place around that Roman torture peg, darkness for three hours, Jesus promising the repentant sinner paradise!

When Jesus died he was laid in the tomb of a rich man Joseph of Arimathae, one of the many secret believers in that time!

Today this same message is as powerful as the events on that day, we see many movie depictions of these events! There have been thousands upon thousands of books written over the last nineteen-hundred years, taking a standpoint from every possible position?

But today is another opportunity for you to choose wither you will repent, confess, seek forgiveness and walk with Jesus?

Luke 22:20,  23:43,  Matthew 27:45,  John 8:12,  Isaiah 1:18-19,  53:12,  2 Corinthians 3:4-6,  5:18-19.
