Second Timothy 4:3

“For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

“I LOVE MY WIFE”

Posted on by

I was still quite a distance away from the parked car, but I recognized the big letters and the big heart on the sticker of the front bumper: “I LOVE MY WIFE.” I love my wife also! Now I was really curious, and when I came nearer I went to look at the sticker properly and in smaller script it said, “PROMISEKEEPRS.” You have heard about the Promisekeepers.

What an encouragement – and that on our street, which is not very long indeed.

The Bible, the Word of the Living God, demands that we love our wives.

Ephesians 5:25,26,27

“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the Church

1. and gave himself up for her

2. to make her holy,

3. cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,

4. and to present her to himself as a radiant church,

a. without stain

b. or wrinke

c. or any other blemish,

d. but holy and

e. blameless.”

First Peter 3:7

WHO IS EMPOWERING US TO TAKE MORE OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL OF OUR LIVES?

From a counselling report:

“IT’S ALWAYS EXCITING TO OBSERVE CHANGES TAKING PLACE AND PEOPLE BECOMING EMPOWERED TO TAKE MORE OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL OF THEIR LIVES.”P1100396

What does the BIBLE say?

First Corinthians 6:19,20

“You are not your own; you were bought at a price.”

Study the selfexistence of God.

Only God is selfexistent.

We are dependent beings!

Flowery Mission Statements and Flowery Vision Statements

Posted on by

“THE ABILITY OF PEOPLE TO PARTICIPATE IN SOCIETY IS DEPENDENT ON THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION THEY RECEIVE. AND THIS DEPENDS, NOT ON LARGE BUREAUCRACIES, GLOSSY BROCHURES, CURRICULUM DOCUMENTS, OR FLOWERY MISSION STATEMENTS, BUT ON THE PERSONAL QUALITIES OF THE TEACHERS.”

Emeritus Professor Ivan Snook

When I read flowery Mission statements and flowery Vision statements, in reports for example, I always remember what Emeritus Professor Ivan Snook said.

“PAPIER IST GEDULDIG” (PAPER IS PATIENT!) I heard that in Germany quite a bit.
