If He had required that apostles should be celibates, He would have selected unmarried people as apostles. However, Jesus chose married people as apostles.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt; color: blue&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt; color: blue&quot;&gt;Thirdly, 1 Corinthians 9:5 says, “&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;sup&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 16pt; color: green&quot;&gt;5&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 16pt; color: green&quot;&gt;Don&#039;t we have the right to take a believing wife along with us, as do the other apostles and the Lord&#039;s brothers and Cephas&lt;sup&gt;[&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20corinthians%209;&amp;amp;version=31;#fen-NIV-28530afen-NIV-28530a&quot; title=&quot;See footnote a&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: green&quot;&gt;a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/sup&gt;?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt; color: green&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt; color: blue&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt; color: blue&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The above verse clearly states that apostles never forsook their wives but instead they took them along. Moreover, Paul the apostle claims, in the above verse, that he has a right to marry as the other apostles did.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt; color: blue&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt; color: blue&quot;&gt;Fourthly, in 1 Timothy 4: 1, 2 and 3 the Bible warns saying, “&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 16pt; color: green&quot;&gt;The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. They forbid people to marry…”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14pt; color: blue&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Thus, the Holy Spirit warns that in the last days, false teachers will forbid people to abstain from marriage. Beware of TPM (The pentecostal mission earlier name - Ceylon Pentecostal Mission) which calls marriage as defiling or lustful.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>Dear Friends,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This week sitting down with a friend and confessing our short comings on to the other, I discovered that there are loads of people like myself, who sometimes find it difficult to read their bible daily and to spend a real good time in God&#039;s presence daily. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe this is a plague and I and all those people will need some real help. That&#039;s why on behalf of everyone who fit into these shoes, I&#039;m screaming HELP!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe this is one of the devises of the enemy in easily deceiving christians, weakening us spiritually, through the loss of contact with the sword of the spirit -the Bible, hence losing contact with God. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shalom&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>My friends,my heart ache for my brethren ,my heart ache because we have exchanged the oracle of God for the traditions of men,exchanged the living word for the doctrines of devils,the teachings of men with seared conscience.Psalm 138:2 says that God has magnified his word above all his name......What i had set before you is the plain word of God and not parables,it will do you well to believe his plain word;I&#039;m afraid for us,i fear that he says it is only those that does the will of father expressed in the son that enters the kingdom and not those that live on the doctrines of men,Acts 17:30,in the time of ignorance he overlooked but now he commands all men everywhere to repent.....Are you living by the teachings and doctrines of devils propagated by men whose conscience have been seared?Have you closed your eyes and ears to the plain word of God but rather seeking interpretation?This is the time to repent,turn radically from it and to the Living word,run for your dear life my brethren,the way is narrow and our Lord and master Jesus says there are few that find it...did you notice he says find it and not few that receive it but find it;may you search and find that narrow path...He also said that the way to destruction is wide and many there is that follow it.....The way to destruction have many automatically following it.....They are following it cos they love it.....Jesus came to seek they which are lost amongst the Israelites....check it very well,it was only the ones that have acknowledged that they were lost that he came to seek and save....when He sent the disciples out he told them that they should not go to the gentiles but amongst the Lost sheep of Israel,likewise there is the lost sheep of the kingdom today,many in the church but are trudging straight to hell why because they have been deceived by men who are deceived themselves.I brought those scriptures to show us and tell us that it truly meant what it says so that you will start taking Jesus at his words and not interpret it to suit our demonic beliefs,i have been taught a useless man made interpretation of these same scriptures but praise to God that he delivered me from the hand of wild animals into the hand of the lamb which was slain and the Lion of the tribe of Judah,my friends,i am here also as an agency to help you consider being delivered from the hand of the wild animals into the hands of the Living Word-Jesus Christ the Righteous.Do you know a man by name John Bevere?Let me share with you a vision he said the Lord gave him in the 90&#039;s;he said that in this vision there was a sea of humanity standing before him,uncountable number of people and he said that all these people where Christians,not one person amongst them were of a false religion nor false Christian cults but people that call themselves Christians.John was standing there and He heard the Lord say to them,&amp;quot;depart from me,i do not know who you are..........&amp;quot;,he said that these people were shocked cos they couldn&#039;t believe their ears because THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE REALLY CHRISTIANS but before God they are not......may we not be one of these people whom the Lord declares  in 2 Thes 2:11-12 that he will send on them a strong delusion....Today is the day of salvation,judge yourself by the word of God so that you wont need to be judged by the same word on the judgment day,then it will be very very terrible.....Let God be true and all men liars.........I have said before and i will say again,you will stand alone on the judgement day and your pastor or favourite preacher or mentor will not be there,the Lord will not ask you who taught you because he gave the Holy Spirit to teach you all things,when you are ready to learn from the Living word,don&#039;t be shocked at the huge percentage of what you have been taught till this moment that is gabbage,my challenge to you is to arise with the sword of the Spirit in your hand,with the living word in your hand and declare to the Holy Spirit,i do not care what follows,i do not care the persecution that follows but teach me the Living word word,strip away from my eyes the veils of the enemy,heal of a seared conscience,forgive me fro ignoring the discernment that you have always given me,teach me now my friend that i may know GOD......Let God be true and all men liars............Let God be true and all men liars......Let God be true and all men liars........Liars will end in the lake of fire.......BEWARE.......I love you all my brethren&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>Mat 6:19  Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust spoils, and where thieves dig through and steal; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 6:34  Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 19:24  And again I say to you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Luk 14:27  And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me, he cannot be My disciple. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Luk 14:33  So then, everyone of you who does not forsake all his possessions, he cannot be My disciple. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 16:24  Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 16:25  For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever desires to lose his life for My sake shall find it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;please tell me what these words mean&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless you&lt;br /&gt;</description>

class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; font-family: &#039;Times New Roman&#039;,&#039;serif&#039;&quot;&gt;About&lt;br /&gt;that time Herod the king laid violent hands on some who belonged to the church.&lt;br /&gt;He killed James the brother of John with the sword, and when he saw that it&lt;br /&gt;pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days&lt;br /&gt;of Unleavened Bread. And when he had seized him, he put him in prison,&lt;br /&gt;delivering him over to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after&lt;br /&gt;the Passover to bring him out to the people. So Peter was kept in prison, but&lt;br /&gt;earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Now when Herod was about to bring him out, on that very night, Peter was&lt;br /&gt;sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries before the&lt;br /&gt;door were guarding the prison. And behold an angel of the Lord stood next to&lt;br /&gt;him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him,&lt;br /&gt;saying, “Get up quickly.” And the chains fell off his hands. And the angel said&lt;br /&gt;to him, “Dress yourself and put on your sandals.” And he did so. And he said to&lt;br /&gt;him, “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me.” And he went out and followed&lt;br /&gt;him. He did not know that what was being done by the angel was real, but&lt;br /&gt;thought he was seeing a vision. When they had passed the first and the second&lt;br /&gt;guard, they came to the Iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them of&lt;br /&gt;its own accord, and they went out and went along one street, and immediately&lt;br /&gt;the angel left him. When Peter came to himself, he said, “Now I am sure that&lt;br /&gt;the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all&lt;br /&gt;that the Jewish people were expecting” &lt;/em&gt;(vv. 1-11). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are two things I want you to notice in this passage. One is the power&lt;br /&gt;of Satan. And the second is the power of prayer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, we see in this story that Satan is on the rampage. Herod, the evil&lt;br /&gt;king, is on the throne. James has been murdered. And Peter is in prison. I&lt;br /&gt;don’t think you or I should ever underestimate the power of Satan! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus says in John 10:10, “The thief [Satan] comes only to steal and kill&lt;br /&gt;and destroy.” Do you know what this means? Satan is a &lt;em&gt;murderer&lt;/em&gt;. I want&lt;br /&gt;you to remember that. Satan is a murderer, and he wants to kill your witness…&lt;br /&gt;he wants to kill your reputation… he wants to kill your contentment. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you ever thought about that? First Peter 5:8 says, “Your adversary the&lt;br /&gt;devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.” Have you&lt;br /&gt;ever seen one of those TV programs that shows a lion attacking its prey? That’s&lt;br /&gt;what Satan is looking to do to you! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But you know what’s great? As Christians, you and I aren’t helpless against&lt;br /&gt;Satan’s attacks. We’re not helpless because we have a weapon. That weapon is&lt;br /&gt;prayer. And that’s the second thing I want you to see in this passage. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We see in Acts 12 that the first-century Christians prayed like crazy for&lt;br /&gt;Peter’s release. And as you know, God intervened, Peter was set free, and the&lt;br /&gt;gospel of Christ continued to be preached. That’s the power of prayer at work! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ephesians 6:12 says, “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but&lt;br /&gt;against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over&lt;br /&gt;this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly&lt;br /&gt;places.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, our battle is a spiritual one! And because of this, we must use the&lt;br /&gt;spiritual weapon of prayer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s why I want to encourage you today… no matter what battle you’re&lt;br /&gt;fighting… to keep looking to God. Keep talking to Him. Because of the shed&lt;br /&gt;blood of Jesus and the power of His resurrection, you and I, as believers, have&lt;br /&gt;open access to His throne. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#039;Times New Roman&#039;,&#039;serif&#039;&quot;&gt;You may&lt;br /&gt;be taking a few hits by the enemy, but I promise you on the authority of&lt;br /&gt;Scripture, a victory is coming. Satan will be defeated. And joy will come in&lt;br /&gt;the morning! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God Bless&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#039;Times New Roman&#039;,&#039;serif&#039;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>Do you Know what Love is?It is God&#039;s command to Love,Do you know what the Love of God is?He has called us to Love others the way He has Loved us......It is my heart desire that we discuss the word of God,have our spirit challenge and our minds renewed as we get rid of the lies we have believed as truth and receive his truth.....Based on this,knowing that God does not love like man,he loves like God,and when he shows his love to a man,he expects the man to love others the same way he has loved him..........What is Love?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHAT IS LOVE ?&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<title>Get Wisdom and Discernment</title>
		<category>PRAYER REQUEST</category>
		<pubDate>2008-02-08T17:19:02Z</pubDate>
		<description>&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Wisdom is a tricky gift to manage. In the Garden of Eden, one temptation of the forbidden fruit was that it would grant wisdom like God&#039;s: &amp;quot;When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.&amp;quot; [Genesis 3:6] Instead of merely asking God for wisdom, Adam and Eve tried to short-circuit the process, and got burnt by it. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Thousands of years later, King Solomon of Israel took the right steps in seeking after wisdom: he asked God for it. &amp;quot;At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon during the night in a dream, and God said, &amp;quot;Ask for whatever you want me to give you.&amp;quot; Solomon answered, &amp;quot;You have shown great kindness to your servant, my father David, because he was faithful to you and righteous and upright in heart. You have continued this great kindness to him and have given him a son to sit on his throne this very day. &amp;quot;Now, O LORD my God, you have made your servant king in place of my father David. But I am only a little child and do not know how to carry out my duties. Your servant is here among the people you have chosen, a great people, too numerous to count or number. &lt;/span&gt;So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong. For who is able to govern this great people of yours?&amp;quot; The Lord was pleased that Solomon had asked for this.&amp;quot; [1 Kings 3:5-10] &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Like he is so often when we ask for beneficial gifts, God was pleased by this request, and honored it.&amp;quot;So God said to him, &amp;quot;Since you have asked for this and not for long life or wealth for yourself, nor have asked for the death of your enemies but for discernment in administering justice, I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and discerning heart, so that there will never have been anyone like you, nor will there ever be. Moreover, I will give you what you have not asked for--both riches and honor--so that in your lifetime you will have no equal among kings. And if you walk in my ways and obey my statutes and commands as David your father did, I will give you a long life.&amp;quot;&amp;quot; [1 Kings 3:11-14] &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Solomon&#039;s prayer of asking for wisdom is a good model to follow: he thanked God for his faithfulness to his father and himself, acknowledged his weaknesses in wisdom, and admitted that only God&#039;s wisdom could govern the Israelites. And God honored that, making him one of Israel&#039;s greatest Kings. Solomon certainly wasn&#039;t perfect-- he loved women, especially foreign women. Like his father David, he was not able to marry just one woman, but instead tried to emulate other nation&#039;s Kings by marrying many. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Speaking of his wives, the author of 1 Kings notes this: &amp;quot;They were from nations about which the LORD had told the Israelites, &amp;quot;You must not intermarry with them, because they will surely turn your hearts after their gods.&amp;quot; Nevertheless, Solomon held fast to them in love. He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray.&amp;quot; [1 Kings 11:2-3] And in this, Solomon&#039;s wisdom failed him: he followed other Gods, and did evil in the eyes of the Lord by that. That broke the first commandment-- No other Gods before me [Exodus 20:3]-- and for that, Israel split between the northern Israel and the southern Judah after Solomon&#039;s reign. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Despite the failings of Solomon&#039;s wisdom, we can still learn from his example. First off, trying to emulate his having hundreds of wives is flat-out wrong: marriage is for one man, one woman. Next, as noted above, and later in the New Testament, God&#039;s people are not to be &amp;quot;unequally yoked&amp;quot;-- married to a nonbeliever by choice. [Conversion of one spouse after marriage does not invalidate that marriage: &amp;quot;Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, when they see the purity and reverence of your lives.&amp;quot; -- 1 Peter 3:1-2; I&#039;d say that the reverse case of a believing husband is also true.] &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Finally, we should stay close to God&#039;s word. The Ten Commandments given in Exodus 20 are valid for everyone, even Kings and Presidents. If you can&#039;t list those ten commandments off the top of your head, I&#039;d suggest some time refreshing your memory so that you do know what God certainly disapproves of. Beyond that, regular reading of the Bible helps remind you of God&#039;s words and teaching. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;When I first read through the Bible, I did that cover to cover-- starting in Genesis, and plowing straight through until the end of Revelation, a few chapters per day. This isn&#039;t recommended for everyone-- some get bogged down in the raw data of Numbers, others in other places of the Bible. [I personally didn&#039;t mind Numbers at all, but had lots more trouble with the Psalms; I suppose that says a lot about me.] A &amp;quot;staggered&amp;quot; approach works to get through the trouble books-- take a few chapters each day of the trouble book, and a few chapters of something else more &amp;quot;interesting.&amp;quot; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The first time you read through the Bible, I highly recommend a NIV Study Bible or the like, which explains the background of each book, people and events. This is especially useful towards the end of the Old Testament, where the prophetic books (Isaiah thru Malachi) aren&#039;t interspersed with the historical events that precipitated most of them recorded in the more historical books of Genesis through Nehemiah. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Getting back to the study of wisdom, Solomon extolled its virtues in the Proverbs, with such comments as &amp;quot;For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul. Discretion will protect you, and understanding will guard you. Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse,&amp;quot; [Proverbs 2:10-12] and &amp;quot;Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or swerve from them. Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you. Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.&amp;quot; [Proverbs 4:5-7] &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;A far more insightful comment on wisdom comes from Job: &amp;quot;The fear of the Lord--that is wisdom, and to shun evil is understanding.&amp;quot; [Job 28:28] While we may be sons of God, we are not to get arrogant about that, or ignore him, as he still rules over this universe and will call all humans to account for their sins. [Revelation 20:12] God is not capricious, and won&#039;t smite you for sinning (we&#039;d all be dead in a few nanoseconds if that was the case), but we must continually live in respect to God and stay away from the evil that he hates. This is one of the aspects of wisdom that Solomon certainly tripped up on. Like all good gifts, pure wisdom is one of God&#039;s attributes, and while we can only experience it in diluted form, we do need to acknowledge him as the source of our wisdom, and try to draw closer to him. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;We are not to be based purely on world&#039;s wisdom, which can&#039;t figure out God&#039;s ways, because it&#039;s not wise to them: &amp;quot;Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than man&#039;s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man&#039;s strength.&amp;quot; [1 Corinthians 1:22-25] The Greeks, the intellectuals of the day, couldn&#039;t understand why God would send his son as a sacrifice for others, instead of compelling humans to believe. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Even to this day, the message of the Gospel is almost foolishness to some: it seems too simple, not enough, to confess sins to Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and invite him into your heart. The world teaches people to strive after money, power, and control, while God teaches service, forgiveness, and submission. But, as Paul said above, God&#039;s foolishness is far more powerful than man&#039;s wisdom-- one will get you temporary gain and much pain, while the other leads to eternal life. James says this about God&#039;s wisdom: &amp;quot;But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.&amp;quot; [James 3:17] &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;So, if wisdom is something we should have, how do we go about getting it? James reminds us to take the Solomonic route: &amp;quot;If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.&amp;quot; [James 1:5] Paul, in his letter to the Philippians, said this: &amp;quot;And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ--to the glory and praise of God.&amp;quot; [Philippians 1:9-11] &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Wisdom is from God, and provides discernment as to what is Godly, what is merely human, and what comes from Satan. Wisdom is given to us through the Holy Spirit, as Paul says elsewhere: &amp;quot;To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, ...&amp;quot; [1 Corinthians 12:8a] We need wisdom more and more these days, as immoral behavior becomes the norm-- wisdom on how to deal with it in our lives, and wisdom as to how to oppose it. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;We also need wisdom to deal with Satan&#039;s plans and schemes: &amp;quot;If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And what I have forgiven--if there was anything to forgive--I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.&amp;quot; [2 Corinthians 2:10-11] Paul aware of Satan&#039;s schemes. With wisdom, so can you also be. Are you aware, or is Satan just some bad guy that you know that you need to resist, but don&#039;t know much beyond that? Pray for wisdom, pray for understanding, as God gives that. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Finally, Paul comments on how we can daily seek wisdom: &amp;quot;Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God&#039;s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God&#039;s will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.&amp;quot; [Romans 12:1-2] By continually seeking after God, his word, and following his desires, we will be granted more and more wisdom to deal with his word, his will, and our lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#00ff00&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ernesto diplo vision&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<title>How do you preach the GOOD NEWS to unbelievers in general</title>
		<category>DISCUSSIONS</category>
		<pubDate>2008-02-07T18:12:16Z</pubDate>
		<description>Last week, I was opportuned to have overheard my colleagues at work saying they did not believe in God. Indeed, after hearing such claims, I was disheartened and did not want to quickly jump into conclusion and furiously respond them, because I believe if I did such I would never have any opportunity to bring Christ real to them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A day after I also dropped into a conversation with a muslim fellow and again I was disheartened to know that such a zealous individual might finish in hell if I do nothing to intervene, but the problem lies in my approach in presenting the word of God. I believe that with such people there are few or no benefits in debating so what are we as believeing Christians to do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do we do as the muslim do? Violently approaching the issue of religion; or on the other hand, keep our silence. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please HELP&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SHALOM&lt;br /&gt;</description>

The boy bundled up in his warmest and driest clothes and &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;said, &amp;quot;OK, dad, I&#039;m ready.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His Pastor dad asked, &amp;quot;Ready for what?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Dad, it&#039;s time we gather our tracts together and go out.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dad responds, &amp;quot;Son, it&#039;s very cold outside and it&#039;s pouring down rain.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The boy gives his dad a surprised look, asking, &amp;quot;But Dad, aren&#039;t people &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;still going to Hell, even though it&#039;s raining?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dad answers, &amp;quot;Son, I am not going out in this weather.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despondently, the boy asks, ?Dad, can I go? Please?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His father hesitated for a moment then said, &amp;quot;Son, you can go. Here are the &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;tracts, be careful son.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Thanks Dad!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And with that, he was off and out into the rain. This eleven year old boy &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;walked the streets of the town going door to door and handing everybody he met &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in the street a Gospel Tract. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After two hours of walking in the rain, he was soaking, bone-chilled wet &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and down to his VERY LAST TRACT. He stopped on a corner and looked for someone &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to hand a tract to, but the streets were totally deserted. Then he turned toward &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the first home he saw and started up the sidewalk to the front door and rang the &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;door bell. He rang the bell, but nobody answered. He rang it again and again, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but still no one answered. He waited but still no answer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, this eleven year old trooper turned to leave, but something &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;stopped him. Again, he turned to the door and rang the bell and knocked loudly &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;on the door with his fist. He waited, something holding him there on the front &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;porch. He rang again and this time the door slowly opened. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Standing in the doorway was a very sad-looking elderly lady. She softly &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;asked, &amp;quot;What can I do for you, son?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With radiant eyes and a smile that lit up her world, this little boy said, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Ma&#039;am, I&#039;m sorry if I disturbed you, but I just want to tell you that *JESUS &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;REALLY DOES LOVE YOU* and I came to give you my very last Gospel Tract which &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;will tell you all about JESUS and His great LOVE.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With that, he handed her his last tract and turned to leave. She called to &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;him as he departed. &amp;quot;Thank you, son! And God Bless You!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, the following Sunday morning in church Pastor Dad was in the pulpit. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the service began, he asked, &amp;quot;Does anybody have testimony or want to say &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anything?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Slowly, in the back row of the church, an elderly lady stood to her feet. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As she began to speak, a look of glorious radiance came from her face, &amp;quot;No &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;one in this church knows me. I&#039;ve never been here before. You see, before last &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday I was not a Christian. My husband passed on some time ago, leaving me &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;totally alone in this world. Last Sunday, being a particularly cold and rainy &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;day, it was even more so in my heart that I came to the end of the line where I &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;no longer had any hope or will to live. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I took a rope and a chair and ascended the stairway into the attic of my &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;home. I fastened the rope securely to a rafter in the roof, then stood on the &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;chair and fastened the other end of the rope around my neck. Standing on that &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;chair, so lonely and brokenhearted I was about to leap off, when suddenly the &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;loud ringing of my doorbell downstairs startled me. I thought, &amp;quot;I&#039;ll wait a &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;minute, and whoever it is will go away.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I waited and waited, but the ringing doorbell seemed to get louder and more &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;insistent, and then the person ringing also started knocking loudly. I thought &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to myself again, &amp;quot;Who on earth could this be? Nobody ever rings my bell or comes &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to see me.&amp;quot; I loosened the rope from my neck and started for the front door, all &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the while the bell rang louder and louder. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I opened the door and looked I could hardly believe my eyes, for there &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;on my front porch was the most radiant and angelic little boy I had ever seen in &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my life. His SMILE, oh, I could never describe it to you! The words that came &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from his mouth caused my heart that had long been dead, TO LEAP TO LIFE as he &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;exclaimed with a cherub-like voice, &amp;quot; Ma&#039;am, I just came to tell you that JESUS &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;REALLY DOES LOVE YOU .&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then he gave me this Gospel Tract that I now hold in my hand. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the little angel disappeared back out into the cold and rain, I closed &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my door and read slowly every word of this Gospel Tract. Then I went up to my &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;attic to get my rope and chair. I wouldn&#039;t be needing them any more. You see---I &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;am now a Happy Child of the KING. Since the address of your church was on the &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;back of this Gospel Tract, I have come here to personally say THANK YOU to God&#039;s &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;little angel who came just in the nick of time and by so doing, spared my soul &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from an eternity in hell.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was not a dry eye in the church. And as shouts of praise and honor to &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE KING resounded off the very rafters of the building, Pastor Dad descended &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from the pulpit to the front pew where the little angel was seated. He took his &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;son in his arms and sobbed uncontrollably. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Probably no church has had a more glorious moment, and probably this &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;universe has never seen a Papa that was more filled with love &amp;amp; honor for &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;his son... Except for One. This Father also allowed His Son to go out into a &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;cold and dark world. He received His Son back with joy unspeakable, and as all &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;of heaven shouted praises and honor to The King, the Father sat His beloved Son &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;on a throne far above all principality and power and every name that is named. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Blessed are your eyes for reading this message. Don&#039;t let this message die, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;read it again and pass it to others. Heaven is for His people! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, God&#039;s message CAN make the difference in the life of someone &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;close to you. Do not be too shy to share that wonderful &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;message.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God Bless You&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.zpmyouths.cristalblog.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#003399&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>I am thanking God for saving me from the snare of the enemy and bringing back to life; for opening the veil that previously blinded me from seeing the truth and exposing to the truth. I know the word of God is right when it says in Proverbs 4:18 &amp;quot;But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, That shines brighter and brighter until the full day&amp;quot;. Though, I have fallen short of the glory of God many times, God has brought me back to light and I can indeed certify to the above bible verse. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God has been leading me and every step of my life has indeed been ordered by Him. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a living witness of the EXISTENCE and the SUPREMACY of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless you&#039;all&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shalom&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<title>Kenya Political Turmoil</title>
		<category>PRAYER REQUEST</category>
		<pubDate>2008-01-30T17:26:01Z</pubDate>
		<description>Hi all, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I greet you in the might name of the Lord. I am sure that most of you are aware of the political situation in kenya that is dividing the nation along ethinic lines and greed for power. The situation is getting worse every day and we don&#039;t know to what extent it will escalate to.Kenya has been one of the most peace ful countries in Africa, but the devil is bad and deceiving, the devil doesn&#039;t want to see anything good, but shame be on him (Satan) in all grounds. People are displaced, amputated, and alls sorts of evil acts are taking over the nation. We have many brothers and sisters in christ back in Kenya, and in times like these they need everyone&#039;s support in prayer. With that, I am calling upon every one of us to dedicated some time to pray for kenya and all countries that are going through war. Also we need to stand with our brothers and sister who are over here and their families are stuck in the turmoil. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;May the Lord bless each one of us as we spare some moments to pray for kenya and other countries in similar conditions&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ron Lwasa&lt;br /&gt;</description>
