THE SUPERNATURAL, PART 2

THE SUPERNATURAL   Part 2   I will continue to come with thoughts about this theme. I have been readings books about other religions and occult practices and these authors describe New Age, other religions, mindfulness and different meditations in detail. I think it is interesting to read these books, but I lack their knowledge. These are Christian books meant to inform us. I can only write a little about these things, but I hope enough to warn you. Last time I mentioned yoga. This ... (read more)

THE SUPERNATURAL, Part 1

THE SUPERNATURAL.   Part 1   The supernatural has drawn people like magnetism and it has frightened people at the same time. It has always been like that. I am writing about this theme since there is a lot of confusion about it. Some people think that everything supernatural comes from the devil while others do not believe in it unless they get a natural explanation. Sometimes people have difficulties knowing what comes from the devil and what is from God. I will write what I think ... (read more)

CHRIST CRUCIFIED, DEAD AND BURIED. CHRIST THE RISEN ONE.

CHRIST CRUCIFIED, DEAD AND BURIED. CHRIST THE RISEN ONE!     We are in the middle of Easter when this comes out. Easter is in my opinion the most important holiday. At the same time we must remember that without Christmas, there wouldn’t be any Easter. The most important man in history was born then. I do not want to minimize Pentecost either since we would have been very helpless without the support of The Holy Spirit. I would still say that Easter is my holiday. Easter is a ... (read more)

DO YOU HAVE A GOLDEN CALF AND WHAT DO YOU DO WITH IT?

DO YOU HAVE A GOLDEN CALF AND WHAT DO YOU DO WITH IT?     We can right away turn to Exodus chapter 32. The headline is called: The golden calf. Moses was on the mount of Sinai and received the Ten Commandments. He also received a lot of other instructions about sacrifices, how the tabernacle should be built and a lot of other rules and instructions. The people started mourning and thought that Moses was gone too long. They got impatient and gathered around the brother, Aron. The ... (read more)

DO YOU KNOW THE SHEPHERD?

DO YOU KNOW THE SHEPHERD?     I will be writing about Jesus as the Shepherd and I will be writing about him or her being your earthly shepherd. I think about one of the five gifts of the ministry. We can go to Ephesians 4:11 where Paul is saying that the Lord gave some to be apostles, some prophets, evangelists and others to be pastors or teachers. In a lot of translations we see the word shepherd instead of pastor. Today we talk about the shepherd. You can go back to Genesis 48:15. ... (read more)

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE WEED?

WHAT DO WE DO WITH THE WEED?     Most of us have had a garden, a bed of flowers or a place where we have been sowing. When we have sowed and it begins to grow, I think all of us have experienced that it seldom comes up alone. All of a sudden we see weed that we haven’t sown. The seeds might have been hidden in the earth or have been blowing from somewhere else. It seems like the weed has grown up faster and become bigger than the original plant. The weed will often take a lot of ... (read more)

PRAYING EFFECTIVELY

PRAYING EFFECTIVELY.     We read in James 5:16 that the effective and fervent prayers of a righteous man avail much. We read in the same verse that we should confess our trespasses to one another and pray for each other in order to be healed. In John 9:31 it says that God doesn’t hear sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him. It also says in the Bible that God loves us even when we were sinners, so I do believe that He hears a sincere prayer of a ... (read more)
