TRUST

Posted on by

People want us to trust them.

I remember reading that lately and I am reading it just now again: “Trust us to build a home this good.” That is a big advertisement on one of the pages of one of our local papers. Underneath the writing is the picture of the most beautiful big home.

It is a Platinum Homes Northland ad and it says also that Platinum Homes are “a different class of home” and that “there is quality throughout.”

I trust in the Lord Jesus Christ and what He says in  John 14:1-4:

Click on John 14:1-4 and find the verses!

Click on one of the books of the Bible……until you get there!

I think we must study the Bible systematically!

Here are the first two verses of  Second Timothy chapter 4:

Second Timothy 4:1,2 (NIV)

“In the presence

-of  God and

-of  Christ Jesus,

——who will judge

———the living and

———the dead, and

In view

-of his appearing and

-his kingdom,

I give you this charge:

PREACH THE WORD;

-Be prepared

——in season and

——out of season;

-correct,

-rebuke and

-encourage –

——with great patience and

——careful instruction.”

What a surprise it was and joy…..

What a surprise it was and joy today to see the newspaper in one of the restaurants and read “Everyone falls short of God’s perfect standard”.

My own copy of  “The Northern Advocate” is now here before me with the above article written by Greg Bedwell, the pastor of the Kamo Baptist Church.

(“Perceptions of  Faith with Greg Bedwell”)

What a way to spread the GOOD NEWS!

Who knows how many copies of  “The Northern Advocate” are being sold ?

Your Future

Posted on by

This morning I picked up a copy of the “Coffee News”, where I read under the heading “On the Lighter Side” the following,  “Be concerned about your future. You’ll spend the rest of your life there.”

You find advertisements in the “Coffee News” and just now I am looking at one ad that says “build a brighter future”. The ad is advertising the Kip McGrath Education Centres. You can go to one of the centres to improve your English, Spelling, Reading and Mathematics.

The Lord Jesus Christ is concerned about my future. He has the brightest future for me. How do I know that? He tells me so in His Word:

“‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'” –

Jeremiah 29:11
