* « Before God only the creature as such exists!And as the individual creature is within himself, so and not otherwise will he be valued in Creation …

Een kijk op de alsmaar ouder wordende uiterlijke mens en een vernieuwd lichaam.
Het getuigenis van de apostelen De geschriften van het Nieuwe Testament laten geen ruimte voor het geloof dat niet God maar Christus de Schepper was. De apostel Johannes beschrijft in het boek Openbaring een hoogst symbolisch gezicht dat hij op het eiland Patmos had gezien. “Er stond een troon in de hemel en iemand was […]
Het geloof van de eerste gemeente Het is heilzaam deze ontwikkeling in de gemeenten in de heidenwereld te beschouwen vanuit het gezichtspunt van de eerste volgelingen van Christus in de eerste dagen van zijn gemeente in Israël. Zo filosofisch gezind als de Grieken waren ze helemaal niet. Zij waren gewoon van kindsbeen af zich toe […]
In de Griekse stad Athene, waar de altaren van een menigte góden te be zichtigen waren en een kakofonie van filosofen te beluisteren was, klonk Paulus’ verkondiging van de levende God als een heldere klaroenstoot. “God, die de wereld gemaakt heeft en al wat daarin is, die een Heer is van hemel en aarde… daar […]

So that Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts; in love being rendered firm, and the foundation laid, (Eph 3:17) Paul restates the prayer’s central appeal, identifying the presence of Christ with the empowerment of the Spirit (Eph 3:16). Just as the Church is becoming a holy temple for God (2:21–22), so the individual […]
Whaw! What a nice swimming pool! Not for swimming, though, but for the first baptisms in the very young ecclesia in Anderlecht. Before the start of the ceremony, overlooking the program. We were delighted to find those who started to train with members of the Brussels-Leuven ecclesia to become the first members of the recently […]
Na het proper maken van het huis, het programmablad voor morgen klaar te maken, en boodschappen doen, zit ik nu in mijn luie zetel. Ik dacht er nog aan een herinnering te sturen, dat we morgen allen de dienst bijwonen in Anderlecht, in plaats van in Leuven en Mons. Iedereen is uitgenodigd op de doop […]

God (as the Chief Shepherd) knows the sheep and He has given the world a shepherd (shepherd Jesus) to bring those sheep to His fold. * Jesus said: Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. …. I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall […]
There is so much anger in this world. When our eye catches the news media we find it filled with stories of people who acted out in anger, killing and harming others in a sudden fit of rage. The last few years many video’s have been placed where we can see youngsters bullying others, beating […]
My wife and I made bread today. It’s not something we do very often, so it seemed kind of special. It got me to thinking about bread in the Bible. There’s a lot of it. It starts right at the beginning, when God pronounces the consequences of Adam’s sin: “By the sweat of your face […]

The Independent, January 19, 2024 Event It is hard to escape the impression of a theatre of military conflict that is inexorably growing – to the east and the south, if not yet to the north and the west. And if you look backwards, rather than forwards, the Hamas massacres of Israelis on 7 October, and Israel’s all-out […]

° ”Be willing to try new things! If you don’t, how will you know what you enjoy? There’s so much value in challenging yourself to do something different. You may not stick with an activity, but the point is you tried it!” — Craig Melvin, news anchor of Today, co-host of 3rd Hour of Today, […]
