THE FUTURE’ S SO BRIGHT…

I GOTTA WEAR SHADES…

I saw that written on stationary and it caught immediately my attention, because it had to do with the future.

I don’t know if you agree with that statement.

May be your future is as dark as could be. But for us who belong to the Lord Jesus Christ, for us, who do understand the BIBLE, the FUTURE surely is bright and we have to wear shades at times, because we cannot digest everything at once.

—– Our FUTURE is bright, because our Lord Jesus Christ is the light of the world. John 8:12

—–Our FUTURE is bright, because we know where we come from and we know where we are going and we also know what the present is all about. The Bible says in Hebrews 13:8 (Please read!)

—–Our FUTURE is bright, because…

to be continued!

Success is going from failure to failure without a loss of enthusiasm!

More than 75 % of Germans believe in the STARS ( I don’t know how the situation is here in NZ) ; they believe that the STARS can predict the FUTURE!

People who believe in the stars are actually afraid. (ANGST!)- Says an Ex-Astrology person, who is now a born again Christian.

Instead of believing in the true God, people believe in the stars ( creation ). ( Romans 1:25 ) We as born again believers know that our FUTURE is in the hands of the living GOD!

EIN SCHLECHTES GEWISSEN

Alfred Nobel erfand das Dynamit und hatte danach ein schlechtes Gewissen. So stiftete er den Nobelpreis.

Es ist schon schlimm, ein schlechtes Gewissen zu haben. Karl May schreibt auch davon in einem seiner Buecher. Ich zitiere aus Winnetou 2. Band Seite 181 wo Old Shatterhand mit Old Death eine Unterhaltung hat. Old Death spricht:”Hoert Ihr, Sir, ein boeses Gewissen! Die Stimme im Innern, die einen anklagt, auch da, wo jeder irdische Richter schweigt! Davon habt ihr freilich keine Ahnung, aber ich sage euch: kein Galgen und kein Zuchthaus reicht da hinan!”

Der Alte sagte das in einem Ton, der mich tief erschuetterte. Dieser Mann schleppte offenbar eine schwere Schuld mit sich herum, sonst haette er nicht in dieser Weise sprechen koennen. Ich sagte nichts. Es verging eine Weile, bis er fortfuhr:”Sir, vergesst das nicht: Es gibt eine goettliche Gerechtigkeit, wogegen die weltliche das reine Kinderspiel ist! Das ewige Gericht sitzt im Gewissen und donnert einem bei Tag und Nacht den Urteilsspruch zu. Es muss heraus; ich muss es euch sagen. Und warum grad euch? Weil ich zu Old Shatterhand trotz seiner Jugend ein grosses Vertrauen habe. Und weil es mir in meinem Innern ganz so ist, als wuerde sich morgen etwas ereignen, das den alten Scout verhindern koennte, seine Suenden zu bekennen.”

First John 1:9

I received today 2 books with testimonies how catholic priests came to know the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour.

There are some email addresses and may be those priests know a way how to reach the pope with the Good News.

So far I have read 1 of the 50 testimonies and what sticks out is that you have to earn your Salvation. It is not by grace. Ephesians 2:8,9

Has Science buried God?

That is the title of a book by John C. Lennox. Unfortunately I cannot get it through the local library, because it does not seem to be in any library in NZ. I would like to read it-but it is about $30,00, I think. Saw it at Paper Plus.

And I hope I do understand the title alright.

But I ask myself: How can the creation bury the Creator? And this is also from memory: A godly scientist said once that we only know a small sliver of everything. But one day we will know more and more and probably find out that SCIENCE agrees with the Bible!

1. Launch your future–courses for adults. On a leaflet from The Correspondence School (Te Kura-a-Tuhi)

2. On the back of a car: Our vision / our whanau / our future

One of these days I must systematize all the material I have collected about the FUTURE!

Alfred Nobel had a bad conscience after inventing dynamite. That’s how the Nobel prizes started.

Heard today that people do other things as well to find help for a bad conscience. But I am not going into details.

I have a magnetic sticker here for the refrigerator door and it says:” Live every day as if it’s your last; enjoy the moment forget the past.”

But what, if you cannot forget the PAST?

But where do we really find help for our bad conscience?– First John 1:9
