To the Cross

When Peter saw Jesus walking on water - he stepped out of the boat to walk with him. On taking his eye off Jesus and noticing the increasingly large waves around him Peter began to sink. Peter cried out "Lord save me!" (Greek: Sozo) Similarly when they were in a boat and Jesus was asleep a storm frightened the disciples as the waves poured over the boat. They cried out to Jesus: "Lord save us! - we're going to drown" We will only call out for a saviour when we realise that we need to be saved. John 3: 16 is probably the most famous verse in the Bible. Less famous are the two verses that follow: For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to SAVE the world through him. Whoever believes in (trusts in , clings to, relies on) him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. Like the disciples on the boat we are in need of a saviour to save ...

mmmm if evolution is true - how come there are so many humans that have been left behind????

Congratulations to all my friend from the United States for their topping their group in the World Cup Football (Soccer). You put England into second place - what's that all about then?

I have been thinking about Peter quite alot recently. His mouth was closed by no other than a servant girl - someone of no authority whatsoever! With a heart full of fear Peter denied knowing Jesus three times. At Pentecost we hear that with a heart full to the brinm of the Holy Spirit Peter was compelled to go out and talk about Jesus - his witness was so powerful that 3,000 people became Christians that day. But would his new resolve last? What if he was brought in front of the authorities - would Peter be silenced once again? Well he didn't have to wait too long before he would find out. In Chapter 3 of Acts we read that Peter full of the Holy Spirit is used by God to heal a lame man and he was dragged in front of the Sanhedrin - the workplace of no other than Annas and Caiphas - the very men who with Judas plotted Jesus' death. If he was going to have his mouth closed it would be now! Instead of being silenced he told them that they were responsible for Jesus' death...

Had this sent to me via e-mail:don't know if it is true -hope so! In Florida , an atheist created a case against the upcoming Easter and Passover Holy days. He hired an attorney to bring a discrimination case against Christians and Jews and observances of their holy days... The argument was that it was unfair that atheists had no such recognized days.. The case was brought before a judge. After listening to the passionate presentation by the lawyer, the judge banged his gavel declaring, "Case dismissed!" The lawyer immediately stood objecting to the ruling saying, "Your honor, How can you possibly dismiss this case? The Christians have Christmas, Easter and others. The Jews have Passover, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah, yet my client and all other atheists have no such holidays..". The judge leaned forward in his chair saying, "But you do. Your client, counsel, is woefully ignorant." The lawyer said, "Your Honor, we are unaware of any special obs...

Anna Arrowsmith - Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Candidate - is a director of Pornographic movies. She claims to be a ' keen campaigner for women's rights'. Why then is she so willing to exploit women, through the world of pornography? The fact that Liberal Democratic leader Nick Clegg supports her shows that the world of politics is getting seedier and seedier. His comments suggest that her private life does not affect her integrity. Rubbish! Integrity is about the whole person. If she is so willing to exploit women in this way for her own wealth, - what lengths will she go to to get where she wants to be in politics! Anyone who is willing to exploit women should not be able to represent the public in parliament! Christians should take matters like this seriously before casting their vote.

I am disgusted and outraged to find out that Hasbro Waddington sell a Ouija Board 'game' aimed at age 8 to adults. How sick is that? Anyone wanting to protest about this product can do so as follows: Telephone 888-836-7025 or e-mail: consumer_affairs@hasbro.co.uk
