Inspiring Teachers

Posted on by

When I read the name of “New Zealand’s ‘Most Inspiring Teacher’ 2012,” in The Warehouse Limited Community Snapshot “You gave, they got,”  the name of the ‘Most Inspiring Teacher’ in my life came to my mind.

"NEW ZEALAND'S 'MOST INSPIRING TEACHER' 2012"

“NEW ZEALAND’S ‘MOST INSPIRING TEACHER’ 2012”

The ‘Most Inspiring Teacher’ in my life did not teach the subject PERSONAL EVANGELISM at Bible school, but he practiced it.

In Matthew 7:26 the Lord Jesus Christ says,

“But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.”

Let me just give you a definition of PERSONAL EVANGELISM (PE):

“Personal Evangelism is the personal, individual desire of a saved soul to lead another person to repentance, so that that person receives Jesus Christ as his or her personal Savior and then also becomes a winner of souls.”

The name of the ‘Most Inspiring Teacher’ in my life is Ernest Klassen and he is still all about to win people for the Lord Jesus Christ in his native Canada.

Birthdays

Once a year we celebrate our birthday. This is one of the cards I received for my birthday:

The card is from friends in Germany.

Here is the verse from the Bible in English:

“For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.” – Hebrews 13:14

“SET UP YOUR HOME”

Posted on by

“Set up your home,” says THE WAREHOUSE LTD mailer on several pages. (Issue 29 valid 12/2/14 to 18/2/14)

It surely is a challenge to set up a home, but it is even  a greater challenge to set up a Christian home.

"SET UP YOUR HOME"

“SET UP YOUR HOME”

What does a Christian home consist of?

A CHRISTIAN HOME CONSISTS OF A FATHER WHO FEARS THE LORD.

Where are the young men who have a living relationship with their creator, read the Bible, pray and are guided by the Lord? In the Bible these young men read in Second Corinthians 6:14: “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers.”

A CHRISTIAN HOME CONSISTS OF A MOTHER WHO FEARS THE LORD.

Where are the young women who are believers in the Lord Jesus Christ?

A CHRISTIAN HOME CONSISTS OF CHILDREN WHO FEAR THE LORD.

In Genesis chapter 22 ISAAC carried the wood and he did not murmur.

And who was obedient even in the middle of the night? It was SAMUEL.

In Luke 2:51 we are reading about JESUS as a child, and he was obedient to his father and his mother.

Who does not want to have a successful home?

Two things are necessary for a successful home, LOVE and the FAMILY ALTAR.

Where is the Lord Jesus Christ crowned as the Head of the Home? The answer is in the family altar.

THE CROSS

THE CROSS

“Moses and Aaron then went into the Tent of Meeting.

Leviticus 9:23-24

Intr.:

When they came out,

1.  they blessed the people; and

2.  the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people.

3.  Fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed

a.  the burnt offering and

b.  the fat portions on the altar.

End:

And when all the people saw it, they shouted for joy and fell facedown.”

“MY MOTHER ALWAYS TOLD ME …”

“My mother always told me …,” I am reading in the magazine called “that’s life!” (August 19, 2013). And in that issue a reader from Australia says,

“My mother always told …

We never know the worth of water until the well is dry.”

One trait that is despised is ingratitude.

THE WELL

THE WELL

And don’t we all know that we could be more thankful?

We receive good things from the Lord and from other people. We must practice seeing that. How can we do that?

I have learned that it is a great help to write down all the good things, one by one.

But not only that.

We must realize the good things in our hearts and sing a hymn to the Lord and most of all we must say a prayer of thanksgiving to the Lord.

This is how my list starts:

1. RUNNING WATER.

2.

3.

What is the first thing you are writing down on your list?
