I like the sentence “A  bequest in your Will is a wonderful way for you to express your concern and desire to help future generations” in the National Newsletter of the Neurological Foundation of NZ called “Headlines”, Winter 2010.

Gifts (will be used to fund vital research)  enabling the Foundation to help give hope to people with neurological disorders. It is all about “Leaving a Legacy of Hope”.

True followers of the Lord Jesus Christ  expressing their concern and desire to help this generation and future generations by making disciples of all nations and by making disciples giving them eternal hope.

Keith Green says, “This generation of  Christians is responsible for this generation of souls on the earth!”

Read also Joel 1:3

“Tell it to your children, and let your children tell it to their children, and their children to the next generation.”

Today is only the 19th of August, but we are told already that Dad’s Day is coming up!

“Thank God every morning when you get up that you have something to do which must be done, whether you like it or not.” – Charles Kingsley

And there would not be any water for quite some time, we were told. Friends who have water are very helpful in situations like that!

LET US PRAY FOR SPIRITUAL THIRST IN OUR LAND!

ARE YOU THIRSTY?

In Isaiah 55:1 we read, “‘Come, all you who are thirsty, …'”

In John 7:37 the Lord Jesus Christ says, “‘If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.'”

In John 4:14 the Lord Jesus Christ says, “‘…, but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst.”

In Revelation 7:16 we read, “…; never again will they thirst.”

LET US PRAY FOR SPIRITUAL THIRST IN OUR LAND!

When did you hear last about hell in church?

“Haehae continued to press in until he obtained an ‘inward assurance of the Divine favour’ and was baptised. That evening, just before his last breath, he called together his friends and family:

LISTEN TO ME, FOR I AM NOW DYING: PERHAPS YOU WILL REMEMBER WHAT I SAY WHEN I AM GONE. YOU ARE ALL IN DARKNESS AND ON THE WAY TO HELL. THIS  COUNTRY IS FULL OF MISERY; WHO WOULD LIVE IN IT ALWAYS? YOU SEE I HAVE NO FEAR. I AM GOING TO JESUS. WILL YOU  MEET ME IN HEAVEN? I AM GOING: FAREWELL!”

From “Bible & Treaty” by Keith Newman, page 104

With great interest I’m reading the book “BIBLE  & TREATY” by Keith Newman. On page 93 it says:

“Our hearts are sick for the word of God: We desire it more than axes, hatchets or blankets.  – A Maori convert at the Hokianga Wesleyan mission station on receiving a Maori New Testament, 1833”

“DO YOU BELONG TO THE LOWER CLASSES WHICH LIVE ONLY TO BE WAITED ON, OR ARE YOU ONE OF THAT GLORIOUS ARISTOCRACY WHICH ONLY LIVES TO SERVE?”
