Jesus is the truth

December 8th Jesus does not say that He has the truth, but He IS the Truth. That means that there cannot exist any lies in Him, not even a little one. All of Jesus is Truth. I looked up in a dictionary and looked for the different meanings of truth. I found many explanations depending on which philosophy or faith you had. They mentioned absolute truths and logical truths. That means that you draw a conclusion, based on what is said. I believe that Jesus was and is absolute true. God is also ... (read more)

Jesus is the way

November 28th I want to write about Jesus as the way, the truth and the life. The first will be about THE WAY. In the same scripture you can read that no one comes to the Father, but through Jesus. (John 14:6) In the world to-day we are so afraid to step on somebody’s religious toes that we hardly dare to preach that there is only One Way to salvation or one way to God. That road is called Jesus and only Jesus gives us admission to God. In certain countries it is forbidden to preach that ... (read more)

The Word of God is your food, part 2

November 18th Part 2. We are continuing to compare the Word with the food we eat or choose not to eat. I wrote that we need variation in our diet. If we have a one-sided diet, we become undernourished. In some churches, they teach a lot about the word of salvation and grace. This teaching might have led you to make the decision of salvation and you are very happy. You continue in the same church and the problems of every-day life arise. You might have problems with paying your bills and you ... (read more)

The Word of God is your food, part 1

November 8th Part 1 The Bible is full of stories about natural food as well as spiritual food. Much of our life is circling around food. How we get the food is dependant on our culture. In my culture we go to the shops to buy the food. One needs money in order to buy food and what we buy is dependant on the price. I am travelling a good deal and I have eaten a lot of different food and seen a lot of different “food-culture”. In some countries they eat out of necessity. Without food ... (read more)

Call to me, and I will answer

August 8th We have been given a telephone-number to God and that is:333. In Jeremiah 33:3 it says:”Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. In other translations they might use the word: Cry unto Me! In other languages, it is used a word that says cry out with a loud voice. God has no problems with His hearing. He looks into our hearts. God is not dependent on the volume of our voice. He wants us to come to Him with boldness and ... (read more)

Summer

June 28th SUMMER……………That means different things for you who live in India and for you who live in Scandinavia. I India it means a time of heat and monsoon-rain. It might not be a time one looks forward to. The rain is necessary, but the humidity and the heat can almost be intolerable. The fall is a wonderful time for vacation. The temperature is just right. The summer months in Scandinavia are June, July and August. Finally we get some warmth and can use less ... (read more)

This is a Jesus year!!

January 8th He is the beginning and the end, and everything in between. We are called to a high and holy calling according to 2.Timothy 1:9. Called for what? We are called to be like Jesus. In order to be like Him, we have to be with Him. As a Christian, we are in Him, but we might not be so much with Him. A couple who have been married for a long time, start looking alike because they have been so much together. Can people around us see and hear that we look and talk like Jesus? God called us ...

To wait and to expect

15th of December This preaching will come out in the middle of Advent. Advent means that we are waiting for something or somebody. It is the time before the actual happening. When a woman is pregnant, she has to carry the child for nine months before the actual appearance of the baby. It takes nine months before the child is fully developed. If it comes earlier, the life of the child is in danger. If a doctor practise medicine after one year of education, he can put the life of the patient in ... (read more)

Christmas 2008

15th of December “THERE WAS NO ROOM FOR THEM IN THE INN” This time I will write about two sentences taken from the gospel of Christmas. We can read in the second chapter of Luke that Joseph and Mary went to Bethlehem to be registered. Mary was pregnant and the time of birth drew very close. She was going to give birth to Jesus, but they could not find any place where they could stay. They were finally taken to a stable. Are you having a vision, dream or a call? We can many places in ...

Trust in the Lord (Not in people)!

1st of December I tried to change the subject, but there was no flow in the Holy Spirit. I realized then that the Holy Spirit had more to say about this subject, but from another angle. I will start by quoting psalm 118 and the eight verse: “It is better to trust in the Lord Than to put confidence in man.” It referres to psalm 62 and the eight verse:”Trust in Him at all times you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.” I will insist on saying ...
