The Bible

“Yours is a good book, but it disturbs the spirits of my men.” – A Japanese officer to a seller of Bibles

From “Good in Everything” by H. L. Gee

The following questions I would ask the person who aspires to be the pastor of a church:

Seven Questions:

1.  Are you a true follower of the Lord Jesus Christ?

— When did you come out of darkness into light, from death into life?

— Does the Spirit bear witness with your spirit that you are a child of God?

2.  Can we know now that we have eternal life?

3.  Do you believe in heaven and hell?

4.  Are your sermons only topical or do you go through a whole book of the Bible verse by verse?

5.  Do you know that the Lord has called you to be a pastor?

6.  Do you believe that every word of the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, is the Word of God?

7.  How many times have you read the Bible from cover to cover? (Every word!)

GETTING in TOUCH

Posted on by

Not long ago I looked to the floor – there is most of the time lots of paper stuff lying on it – of the room I am working in and read “In Touch” and  “In Contact”. The newsletter “In Touch” came today with our phonebill. I like to read the newsletter “In Touch”. “In Contact” is the Contact Energy newsletter. I like to read the newsletter “In Contact”.

We are “In Touch” with Telecom. We are “In Contact” with our energy company.

BUT ARE WE IN CONTACT – IN TOUCH – WITH THE LIVING GOD?

He has sent us His newsletter, the BIBLE, the Word of the Living God. I love to read the Bible very much.

The Contact Energy newsletter Winter 2010 has four pages and on the last page at the end it says,

“Getting in touch

We love hearing from our customers,……..” (E-mail is given)

The Lord says, “Call to me and I will answer you…” Jeremiah 33:3

The Lord says, “and  call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me.” Psalm 50:15 (Read also Psalm 50:14)

I love to pray to God.
