Een overste van de Joden, lid van het sanhedrin en leraar in Israël luistert naar Christus die over de wedergeboorte uit water en Geest spreekt .
God verblijft in de hemel maar is ook overal op de wereld, maar niet verdoken in kerken geplaatste tabernakels.
Sommigen nemen aan dat Gods Koninkrijk geen wereldomvattend Vrederijk is maar eerder een geestelijke toestand in het hart van de vromen zou zijn. Voor hetzelfde woord vindt men zowel de vertaling “koninkrijk” als “koningschap” waarbij het Koninkrijk door zijn omvangrijkheid overal te merken zal zijn en terugslaat op het Vrederijk van Christus Jezus.
Uit de spreukachtige gezegden die Jezus gebruikt tijdens zijn bergrede blijkt hoe de ene uitspraak slechts één kant van een zaak belicht terwijl een andere betrekking heeft op een ander aspect hiervan.
In Jezus tijd was mondelinge overlevering heel belangrijk. Daarom gebruikte Jezus als leerkracht spreekvormen die het makkelijker maakten om het gezegde te onthouden, zoals bijvoorbeeld een spreukachtige taal.
In this world where there is more attention given to finances in the Eurozone and the Common Market we find more people loving money and turning away from belief in the true God as at Babel; more believing there is no God, no creator at all to whom they owe their lives.
Behind every significant event in history has been the “will of the LORD” bringing about things that are “good” or things that are “bad” – more often the latter. This is even sometimes the case with seemingly insignificant events! In our reading of 1 Samuel 9, donkeys belonging to a Benjamite become lost and the […]
Our readings in Isaiah and Revelation both challenge us with figurative language about the climax of life on earth. There are many passages in God’s word which make reference to the heavens in a way in which it seems clear they symbolise, in certain contexts, the ruling powers on earth. Through Isaiah God says, “My […]
We do not know a great deal about Isaiah’s personal situation. In John’s Gospel we read that “Isaiah said these things because he saw his glory and spoke of him” (12:41), so the seeing was with the eye of faith, a vivid picture in the mind. Isaiah “saw” what was to come, believing with such […]
As we continue reading the final message of Jesus in Revelation we reflect on how much heart searching it has caused believers in every generation. Its wonderful visions of an ultimate age of perfection and glory are balanced by the awesome series of woes beforehand. The last 1,900 years bear testimony to the judgements that […]
As Brothers in Christ, Christadelphians want to share the love of Christ with others and take their responsibility to help those who do not have it so well. During the lockdown period several of our ecclesiae felt how people around them had difficulties having enough food on the table. Therefore, all over the country, several […]
This world should know that there shall come a day that the godless people will fall by the mouth and the edge of the sword and will be led away as captives to and among all nations and Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled (completed). […]
I was rather overwhelmed by the range of appropriate thoughts in all our readings this morning! God’s words through Isaiah, quoted in our title (33:2) arrested my attention. Jesus is the “arm of the Lord” – soon we will read Isaiah’s famous chapter 53 which starts “to whom has the arm of the LORD been […]
How fortunate and well blessed we are compared to some of the people living in Kenya. Our projects In Kenya are helping to build families when children don’t have one and helping communities to transform themselves.
“I will not fear …” We can read God’s word, putting the emphasis on the blessings it promises, or we can read it emphasizing the judgments it warns about. We pray we have so lived that we deserve the blessings – yet it is only through his grace that we can anticipate them. Isaiah 30 […]
Event Turkey has broken Nato unity on Finland and Sweden’s push to join the alliance, blocking an initial vote on accession after President Erdogan demanded that the two countries hand over dozens of Turkish exiles he accused of “terrorism”. The veto came hours after Jens Stoltenberg, the Nato secretary-general, hailed a historic moment for western […]
The Times, May 2, 2022 Event Ukraine, one of the most fertile and productive countries in the world, has been known historically as the “bread basket of Europe”. Now it is facing a complex and unprecedented agricultural crisis, in which landmines are only one of numerous interlinked problems. The United Nations estimates this year’s harvest […]
BBC, April 22 + Audit of antisemitic incidents Event The number of anti-Semitic incidents around the world dramatically increased last year, a study by Tel Aviv University has found. The report identifies the US, Canada, the UK, Germany and Australia as among countries where there was a sharp rise. This was fueled by radical left- […]
The Times, April 16 Russia’s setbacks could prompt President Putin to use tactical nuclear weapons, William Burns, the CIA director, has said. Moscow has a stockpile of about 2,000 tactical nuclear weapons, also known as low-yield or battlefield munitions, that can be deployed by air, sea or artillery. These are generally less potent than the […]
Event: The United Nations general assembly has voted to suspend Russia from the human rights council after images of atrocities apparently showing civilians left dead in the streets with their hands bound emerged following Russian troops’ withdrawal from around Kyiv. The call for Russia’s removal from the UN’s top human rights body was led by […]
”Just as water rapidly eroded the banks of the mighty Colorado River and created a vast Grand Canyon, America’s current belief system (relativism) has eroded her foundation and created a moral void. ~ Shane Idleman in America Needs to Turn Back to God.” * Find also to read: How many innocent people have still […]
Soms is het fijn als je even al je kopzorgen opzij kan plaatsen.Al enkele dagen mochten wij genieten van zomerse dagen. Laat daarbij de zon in je hart schijnen en geniet van elke warme zonnestraal.

Looking at the Nato and Russia their armed forces and military investment.
First of all to come to a good relationship with some one, one has to talk with that person and has to listen to what that person has to tell. God talks to the people by the way of His Word, presented to mankind by the many Bible translations, so that most people can read […]
The One Who created everything and Who gave His Word, did all He did with a purpose and out of love. The Bible teaches us that “God is love.” (1 John 4:8) Everything God does is motivated by love. Out of love created man in His image also with the intention to have a good relationship […]
In the previous writings we saw that the Divine Creator gave His Word to the world so that people could come to know Him. The Bible is a gift from God. It gives us information that we can’t find anywhere else. For example, it tells us that God created the heavens, the earth, and the […]
It is never too late to start the good habit of regularly reading the Bible, a Book of hope and comfort.
At the beginning of the new schoolyear there is a good reason from now on to invest each day in meeting with God.
Geachte Broeders,
Mag ik u vragen welke bijbelversie u gebruikt ? NGB , SV of iets anders?
Mvg

Christadelphians of Broeders in christus zijn niet gebonden aan één specifieke Bijbelvertaling. Iedereen mag zijn eigen geliefkoosde Bijbel kiezen uit het overvloedig aanbod van Bijbelvertalingen.
In België wisselen wij jaarlijks van Bijbelvertaling voor de voorlezing in de dienst, om te vermijden dat mensen zich zouden vastpinnen aan één versie en enkel die taal van die versie zouden gaan gebruiken. Maar ook hier bij ons in België blijft elk lid verder de vrije keuze behouden eender welke Bijbelvertaling eender welke taal te gebruiken. Wel zijn er Bijbelvertalingen waar wij zelf aan mee gewerkt hebben die mee in de Bijbelstudies als vaste waarden worden gebruikt, zoals de ESV of English Standard Study Bible, de Nederlandse Bijbelvertaling (van 2004), en het Wetboek van God (WBvG), alsook de Nederlandse als Engelse Orthodoxe Joodse Bijbelvertaling (OJB & OJBV) voor onze Joodse leden.
Verder vormen de Reference Bible en Referentie Bijbel, met de Nieuwe Wereld Vertaling en New World Translation vaste waarden.
