“AWAKE!”

Yesterday I picked up the publication called “AWAKE!” (February 2013) from the foot path.

The magazine is published by Jehovah’s Witnesses.

I am interested in the circulation.

“PRINTING EACH ISSUE: 43,524,000 in 98 Languages.”

“For Best Results”

“For best results” do four thing.

I am finding those four instructions on a small box filled with eight coffee bags. Of course we want the best results of everything and we want good outcomes.

That’s why I say if you want a good outcome of your life, the best results, follow the instructions in the “BOOK OF BOOKS”.

"For Best Results"

“For Best Results”

Things to do and not to do:

1. “‘You shall have no other gods before me.'”

2. “‘You shall not make for yourself an idol in any form ..'”

3. “‘You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God …'”

4. ‘”Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.'”

5. ‘”Honor you father and your mother, …'”

6. ‘”You shall not murder.'”

7. ‘”You shall not commit adultery.'”

8. ‘”You shall not steal.'”

9. ‘”You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.'”

10. ‘”You shall not covet your neighbors house.'”

I am going now to open the box with the coffee bags and follow the instructions to enjoy a cup of coffee with the best results. Two pictures help me to follow the instructions.

And can I encourage you to open the BIBLE, the guide book to everlasting life!

 

“FAR FROM ROME NEAR TO GOD”

Von Rom zu Christus

Von Rom zu Christus

A book I find difficult to put down is the book called “FAR FROM ROME NEAR TO GOD.”

I have finished reading Volume 1 in German. (VON ROM ZU CHRISTUS, Katholische Priester finden die Wahrheit, Richard Bennett / Martin Buckingham. Hrsg.)

I am interested to get hold of the Original: FAR FROM ROME NEAR TO GOD.”

There are two Volumes in German and at the present time I am reading Volume 2 with very great interest.

IN BRIEF

CENSUS DATA 2013

40% of New Zealanders ticked the “Non-religious” box this year.

43% (1.9 million) indicated that they had a church affiliation.

BICENTENARY

The First Proclamation of the Christian Gospel in AOTEAROA (New Zealand) took place in 1814!

Ruka 2:10: ‘He kaikauwhau tenei ahau!’

Luke 2:10: ‘I bring you good news!’

BEING THANKFUL

An old lady is still teaching. She is in a home for old people. She is not quite 100 years old. And she teaches me to be thankful.

The Bible says in First Thessalonians 5:18: 

“GIVE THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THIS IS GOD’S WILL FOR YOU IN CHRIST JESUS.”

Unueberbrueckbarer Graben

“Waehrend ich den unueberbrueckbaren Graben zwischen der roemisch-katholischen und der biblischen Kirche klar erkannte, musste ich mit Schrecken feststellen, dass die meisten meiner Brueder und Schwestern in den reformierten und evangelikalen Kreisen fast oder gar keinen Unterschied zur roemisch katholischen Lehre sehen!”

– Cuthbert Dzingirai im Buch VON ROM ZU CHRISTUS, Richard Bennett/ Martin Buckingham (Hrsg.)
