Some (believers) Forget?
Even people of faith can allow themselves to get caught up in tradition of holidays like Christmas and Easter and forget that their faith in God has much more to offer?
Jesus Ascended back to Heaven and Angels said, 'He would return again in the same way!'
Jesus is coming back to collect the Ekklesia, Bride of Christ or family of God at the end of the Age!
We must be ready for that great and terrible day, when the sky as we understand it will be opened to reveal the mighty armies of Heaven descend to Earth?
Acts 1:2-11, John 14:3, 2 Thessalonians 1:10, Revelation 1:7.

The Spiders Web!
The INTERNET.
These last few days has seen an unprecedented attack on the Internet and older operating systems by unknown hackers or so we are being told?
Technology is a great thing, we have a plethora of gadgets today and in the last 30 years there has been a revolution! The Internet brings education, entertainment and communications today right into our hands via the mobile phone.
But as we are seeing there is a cost to everything, because a system is easy to work with and is old, does not mean it will continue to be patched up with new fixes?
The bible warns us about trusting in things and not in God, it also tells us not to sew new patches to old garments? But rather we should be wise in our need of storage and buy new things that are present!
Judges 16:13-14, Job 8:14-15, 27:18, Isaiah 59:6, Matthew 7:26-27, Mark 2:21-22, Luke 5:36-37.

Witness of the Resurrection!
People are canny today when it comes to being a witness, they either know how the play the system that requires numbers or they like the police make up false statements to twist things to suit themselves?
But over five hundred people say Jesus risen from the grave over a period of forty days, and Jesus said to sceptical Thomas what you see, many will believe without ever seeing!
So the ball is now in our court and we have heard it all before, OMG I don't believe?

1st May.
A day for the Workers?
Today many people who work for these plethora of the many gig economy companies are actually more worse off than their ancestors one hundred years ago?
19thCentury socialism fought for the rights and equality of the workers, who had been exploited by their bosses throughout the Industrial revolution.
But today there remains several totalitarian governments who are enslaving their people, because they have taken socialism to the extreme and thus they have reverted to the denial of many other freedoms!
God calls for believers in business to be fare, show concern and be compassionate to their workers situations!
Exodus 6:9, Psalm 71:4, Ecclesiastes 10:13, Malachi 1:4, Matthew 15:37, 1 Corinthians 8:13, Colossians 3:12, 1 John 3:17.

Easter. Part-Three.
Risen from the Dead!
Jesus said that he would die and rise from the dead on the third day, and he did! He was seen by well over five-hundred people between His resurrection and His Ascension back to Heaven, over a forty-day period.
Doubting Thomas is one proof, the broiled fish is another that he returned to us in the same body and was neither a ghost of some lofty Spirit! Jesus was the same flesh and blood as He always was, both fully the perfect, sinless man and God!
Now we come to the facts of faith-trust in relation to the resurrection of Jesus, because some cannot believe this to be a truth? Without understanding this key area of our salvation, we will not be delivered from the darkness of sin! In it we died with Him and rose with Him into the Eternal New Life!
John 11:25, 1 Corinthians 15:4, 12-13, 1 Thessalonians 4:14, 1 Peter 1:3, 8.

Easter. Part-Two.
Jesus perfect and sinless Man!
Jesus chose of His own free will to go to the cross/tree/stake for our purchasing back to God! He was the perfect sacrifice, much better than any animal that had been offered since the days of Abel, Tabernacle and the Temple!
Blood had to be always shed for the remission of sins on everything, we see this on the door posts before the Exodus from Egypt by Moses, we see it in nearly every sacrifice that was offered to God!
But now Jesus died taking our sin on His body and removing past failure, allowing us into a New Life with Him and His father!
Exodus 12;13, 29:20, Matthew 26:28, Luke 22:20, Acts 20:28.

Easter. Part-One.
He died for Me?
Easter is about the death and resurrection of Jesus, that baby that we celebrate the birth of Christmas each year! But in history there were thirty-three years between these two most pivotal moments in human history.
Jesus came to set sinners free from the grip of Satan, who has a hold on humanity since Adam fell eating the forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden! But God always promised that he would send a Saviour to rescue man from his inherited condition!
For God so loved the world, that he gave for us Jesus His one and only son. John 3:16.
