“God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” – Second Corinthians 5:21

Some time ago I did not quite know the answer to that question.

There is no doubt that the Bible comes first. The reason for that is that the author of the Bible is the Holy Spirit. I remember also that the Lord Jesus Christ says, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” You find that in Matthew 24:35

But lately I have read the five books by G. F. Dempster. The title of the first book is “FINDING MEN FOR CHRIST.” The other four books have different titles, but they are also about Personal Evangelism. (P. E.)

“VON ROM ZU CHRISTUS”

At the present time I am also blessed by reading testimonies by catholic priests. They are telling how they came out of darkness into light. I have two volumes in German, altogether 50 stories. The two books were sent to me by friends in Germany long ago, and I think I remember that correctly. ENGLISH: FAR FROM ROME, NEAR TO GOD, Banner of Truth, 1997.

Now I know which books come second. I think the reason why I did not quite know the answer to the above question (Which books come second?) is, I love also the Expositions of Books of the Bible by D. M. Lloyd-Jones.

“‘Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in  and eat with him, and he with me.'” – Revelation 3:20

“The promises of science, of education, of philosophy, of self-knowledge, self-control, self-improvement, are all futile in the face of those personal temptations which assail the learned and and the ignorant alike, which defeat all mental efforts, and overthrow all bulwarks of socalled culture.” – G. F. Dempster

All of us have an earthly father, but not everybody has a heavenly Father.

EARTHLY FATHERS

I cannot remember my earthly father at all.

OUR HEAVENLY FATHER

But I know my heavenly Father.

I know also that I am planted by my heavenly Father. You must know that too. If you don’t know you will be pulled up by the roots. You find that in Matthew 15:13.

“FORGIVEN”

I know also what my heavenly Father says about forgiveness. If I want to be forgiven, I must forgive others. Please read that in Matthew 6:14 and Matthew 18:35

I know also that my heavenly Father is looking after me. My heavenly father feeds the birds. The Bible tells me that I am much more valuable than the birds. In the Bible it says also that my heavenly Father knows what I need. My experience is that my heavenly father gives me more than I need. Praise his name. Please read what it says in Matthew 6:26 and Matthew 6:32.

I know also that I must tell others about my heavenly Father. If I acknowledge him before men he will acknowledge me before his Father in heaven, but if I disown him before men he will disown me before his Father in heaven. You find that in Matthew 10: 32,33.

I have no remembrance  of my earthly father, but I know my heavenly Father and I hope the knowledge of my heavenly Father is increasing.

My earthly father did not come back from World War 2, and I don’t even know  where he is buried.
