Restoration by Lance Ponder⁽⁹³⁾ Zeph 3:20 At that time I will bring you in, at the time when I gather you together; for I will make you renowned and praised among all the peoples of the earth, when I restore your fortunes before your eyes,” says the Lord . 2 Thess 2:1 describes the gathering of saints at the coming of Jesus. The greater context, 2 Thess 1:5 to 2:12, expands in a different way upon much of what Zephaniah says in his closing statements, particularly this final verse. Paul reminded the Thessalonians that God is just and will grant ultimate relief when Jesus returns. Evil will be punished, but in the meanwhile believers are urged to do good works through faith by his power. Paul next urged them not... (read the rest of what Lance Ponder wrote.)		If You Do Not Believe That I Am He: Summary John 8:12-30 by Teresa^(1,656) Read John 8:12-30 In John 8:1-11, we read how Jesus exercised truth and grace in dealing with the woman (and her accusers) who was caught in the act of adultery. From the context, it is safe to assume Jesus was writing the sins of her accusers in the sand as a witness against them for their actions and abuse-use of the law. When she alone was left with Jesus, he offered her grace and forgiveness, in this it is evident she had a repentant heart, and Jesus ended his conversation with an admonishment to " go and sin no more. " With many gathered around because of this scene, Jesus continued to speak to those who remained. It was as if he was reaffirming his position as the son of God...

Choosing a BIG heart of Forgiveness by Marijo Phelps⁽²⁰¹⁾ Choosing a BIG heart of Forgiveness Lord, I am choosing to have a big heart of forgiveness, a heart without room for offense. How many times do I say something and then think, oh, my, that could have been taken another way and I sure hope they didn’t think that I really mean…… as another member of Your Body has opportunity to give me grace. I am choosing to have that forgiving heart with no room for the heart of stone. Offense would turn that heart of flesh you gave me, the one you paid so dearly for, the one which is alive and feeling to a petrified little nub. I really do not want to hang onto that offense and let it do THAT work on me. Lord... (read the rest of what Marijo Phelps wrote.)		“…the world knew Him not.” Let’s speak up! Be the best you can be! (Mt 5:48) by Teresa O'Driscoll It is some time since I last wrote as I have been busy settling in to my new Welsh home after repatriating from Greece. My small tranquil former coalmining village has returned to its naturally beautiful state. Walking out of my house and up beside the nearby river, usually with only sheep for company, my mind frequently turns to Psalm 23. “The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want; He makes me down to lie in pastures green. He leadeth me, the quiet waters by.” At this time of Advent though, as we prepare to celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ our Saviour, this psalm takes on a special significance, belonging, as it does, to the trilogy of psalms that foretell of His...

Rapture of the Church by Bart⁽²³⁾ Lately there have been a lot of discussions over various biblical doctrines and beliefs of the church. One such discussion is about the Rapture of the church. The following is more about the position I hold to and why, than anything else, and was originally written to defend the teaching of the Rapture, to a group of young men who deny it altogether. I would like to give an overview here, and if there is interest, I can follow on with a more in depth study of the various views and teachings on this matter. In studying about the ‘Rapture’ I was surprised to discover that most Christian faiths believe in a calling away of God’s church. I find this intriguing as there is...

OUR VICTORIOUS HEART -- A Journey With Nicole through Trisomy 18 by Jim Reynolds⁽¹²⁾ A Journal of Gods Faithfulness through Parents Grief Chapter 1 -- A Windy Day I've decided grief is like the wind on a gusty day -- a nearly constant tug whose intensity can never be predicted. At times it's a light breeze -- almost comforting in the way it gently disturbs things; it's not just " grief; " it is memory... reminder... a pleasant echo peace. Other times, it has been like a gale as though it tears right through my clothes, down to my bones and heart, and all of " me " is flapping helplessly in this overpowering force like a tattered flag. Thankfully, for the most part, these intense experiences have faded... but it still gets quite windy some days. ... (read the rest of what Jim Reynolds wrote.)
