ARE YOU ALSO LOOKING FOR A PASTOR?
A CONGREGATION IN SWITZERLAND IS LOOKING FOR A PASTOR.
I found this interesting ad in the magazine for graduates called “Braker Ehemaligen Forum”. Unfortunately it is in the German language and not so easy to translate:
STELLENANGEBOTE
———————————————–

ARE YOU QUALIFIED TO TEACH OTHERS?
The logo (emblem) of a Bible College in Germany – Bibelschule Brake – includes the following verse from the Bible:
Second Timothy 2:2 (easy to remember!)
“AND THE THINGS YOU HAVE HEARD ME SAY IN THE PRESENCE OF MANY WITNESSES ENTRUST TO RELIABLE MEN WHO WILL ALSO BE QUALIFIED TO TEACH OTHERS.”
HOW DO I SPEND MY LIFE?
I AM ALWAYS INSPIRED BY THE NOTICE BOARD OF THE KAITAIA UNION CHURCH.
How do I spend my life? How do you spend your life? Good Questions? I think so!
Matthew 28:19,20 “THE GREAT COMMISSION”
Only today I find more about hell in the little magazine called “GOinto”. The Writing and Editorial Team is writing in the SUMMER 2010 issue:
“TO HELL WITH THEM?”
“In recent downtown street conversations it’s been startling, although not surprising, to hear that most people don’t believe in Hell. Heaven, yeah sure, many like that idea. Hell, no way, can’t stomach that one. Would we answer any differently?”
There is also a quote by J. I. Packer in the article. He is the Christianity Today editor. And this is the quote: “Emphasis on the lostness of the lost has come to be almost taboo. The shift is startling.”
To read the whole magazine get in contact with:
WEC International*
reaching people planting churches
One article is called: “Plain Speak for ‘Unreached'”. In the article you find the word ‘UNREACHED’ defined.
I hope you care enough to write for the free little magazine called “Go into”.

Golden Nugget – Sermon Outline (Topical)
“Be inspired by words…..”
Yes, I am inspired by words, even this morning. This morning I am inspired by the words in Romans 8:38,39. I hope you are too! It is another beautiful Golden Nugget. I came across it just now in a book by C. H. Spurgeon. (Morning and Evening) Here we go:
NO SEPARATION FROM THE LOVE OF GOD!!
Romans 8:38,39
For I am convinced that neither *
– death nor (First Corinthians 15:26; First Corinthians 15:54,55)
Isaiah 25:8 “he will swallow up death forever.”
– life, neither
– angels nor
– demons, neither the
– present nor the
– future, nor any
– powers, neither
– height nor
– depth, nor
– anything else in all creation,
will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
What a good sermon outline for a topical sermon with ten points.
* Find verses from the BIBLE for the ten sermon points. The first is done.
“BE INSPIRED BY WORDS….”
“Be inspired by words…….”
You can read that and more on a poster displayed at the Post Office here in Kaitaia.
The NZ International ARTS Festival will be soon: 26 Feb – 21 Mar 2010!
We are told to be inspired by words. I am inspired by words. Most of all I am inspired by THE WORD OF GOD.
That is another title for the Bible. The Bible is known also by other titles such as “the Scriptures” and “the Writings”.
BE INSPIRED BY THE BIBLE, THE WORD OF THE LIVING GOD!
Matthew 24:35
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.”
Billy Sunday on Soul Winning:
“SOUL WINNING IS A DEFINITE EFFORT TO LEAD A DEFINITE PERSON TO ACCEPT A DEFINITE SAVIOUR AT A DEFINITE TIME.”

Psalm 126:5,6
“Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy. He who goes out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him.”
