Heaven on Planet earth

THE PEACE MAKER who, if allowed to do so, can bring an end to all enmity, fighting and wars in and amongst families, friends, co-workers and foes in our homes, organisations, campuses, companies, communities, countries and continents.

 

Eph 2:14-18 Christ Our Peace Maker

The joy of life is to live with hope (expectancy) - BE HAPPY and SOW HAPPINESS

Quintus Heine - edited and expanded by Dr MM

Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.Romans 5:3-5

If you only live for the weekends you will want to Stop & Think about the following.

A carnal man (male & female) is by nature lazy. A spiritual man A truly born again child of God receives the Spirit of his/her Father and will thus enjoy working i.e. (clean & create something because his/her Father is The Creator Who still works 6 days a week!... WHY? Because it is so satisfying to say "It is good" at the end of a productive day. There is HOPE!

THE QUESTIONS which we all need to answer the PERSON IN THE MIRROR!

F-D-C = Facts - Decisions - Consequences

Sex, like electricity, is dangerous. If sex is not 'insulated' within marriage the possible consequences include aids, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhoea, infertility and the jealous anger of the innocent marriage partner!

The Biblical Laws and Boundaries were instituted by God, Jesus & Holy Spirit for our protection! The Biblical laws and boundaries within which we are to enjoy sex were given by a Good God who wishes to protect us from the terrible consequences of sex outside of marriage.

3. Is Oscar guilty of accidental murder or manslaughter?

    YES/NO

4. Did Oscar and Reeva ignore God's law and boundaries for sex? Laws instituted by Him to protect them and all of us from terrible consequences of sex outside of marriage. Sex, like electricity, is dangerous. If sex is not 'insulated' within marriage the possible consequences include aids, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhoea, infertility and the jealous anger of the innocent marriage partner!

 THE Super Star of History, THE Greatest Freedom Fighter and THE Saviour of the World, It is reassuring to know that He is ALIVE, WELL & ALL POWERFUL and that despite the negative news we know that His Heaven of Planet Earth (H.O.P.E.)  transformation process is picking up momentum through the Power of the Holy Spirit, the power of our new decisions for 2015 and the Power of Multiplication.

We pray that you will be blessed in 2015 by enjoying a personal relationship with JESUS, the Name above every name given unto man! May we all make a renewed commitment to return to our Good Father God of Love & Blessings and His infallible Word (His' love letter') with an expectancy to enjoy His love, favour and power. In so doing we will be able  love, forgive, bless and empower our family, friends, colleagues and even enemies. Hopefully they will also be set free to enjoy the long walk to His H.O.P.E. Freedom.

The PRESENT CULTURE of CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS needs changing.

 We urgently need to EXCHANGE our I'S & T'S on how to change the present culture of celebrating Christmas. And then to implement it!

Lorraine and I had a wonderful 14 days of celebrating Christmas with all our 6 children and 8 grandchildren. In total we had 16 mouths to feed, 16 sets of expectations to manage and to ensure that everyone is safe (sea, rocks and pool). There is nothing worse than a disappointed expectation! What a privilege and what a blessing it was! What a task!

n Gebed uit "Stukkies van die hemel op aarde" 'n boek geskryf deur professor Dirkie Smit:

“Ons bring die nood en die klag van ons wêreld voor U,
Gewer van alle goeie gawes –
Ons roep saam met hulle, ons sug saam met hulle,
Met almal wat nie daaglikse brood het nie,
Kinders sonder kos, gesinne sonder huise,
Ouers sonder werk, armes sonder hoop.
Ons roep saam met almal wat honger en dors na geregtigheid,
Wat smag na vrede, wat vergaan onder geweld en misdaad,
Wat leef in ewige vrees.
Onferm U tog oor ons.

Ons tree in voor U troon van genade, barmhartige Vader,
Vir almal wat ly onder die gierigheid
En die hebsug van ander,
Onder misdaad, onder misbruik, manipulasie en selfsug.
Ontferm U tog oor ons.

Ons bely voor U, regverdige Regter, ons eie aandeel, ons eie verantwoordelikheid,
Ons eie aandadigheid, ons eie betrokkenheid,
Ons eie versuim, ons apatie, ons skuld –
In hierdie nood en klagte,
Wat opstyg tot in die hemele.
Ontferm U tog oor ons.
Amen”

  A good person leaves an inheritance for their children's children, but a sinner's wealth is stored up for the righteous. Prov 13:22

 On this day in South Africa we celebrate Heritage Day.

Let us reflect on our diverse heritages, both good and bad.

Let us celebrate and build on our good heritages and learn from our bad heritages.

Let us put out the right hand of fellowship and forgiveness to one another.

Let us on this day appreciate one another and one another's good heritage.

"... on earth, as it is in heaven"
