2012 Olympics and Paralympic Games

Have We Inspired The Nation

It was Eric Liddell who refused to race on a Sunday in 1924 because he was a man of principle who never wanted to dishonor God by racing on Sunday. His Olympic victory was portrayed in the film Chariots of Fire. The last words he spoke before he died were "complete surrender". I have just finished reading his biography of the same name, in a year when ' Inspire a Nation' is on everyone's lips. Mr Liddells life was a life of total surrender he spent many years of his life as a missionary in China and he was there throughout WWII. The book gives personal details of the treatment of Christian missionaries and Chinese sufferring in these war torn times. Eric Liddell always had a smile and gave 100% in all his work. When it comes to true Christianity its about putting others first Paul The Apostle said follow me as I follow Christ? from his biography you can realise that Eric Liddell walked as Christ walk with humility and determination. I thank God for people of this persuasion who have the magnetism and charisma to  inspire. A man who gave up a secure future of fortune and fame to persue the heart of God. Be encouraged.  This Book is Avalable @ authenticmedia

Pentecost

Start of The Church Pour out a double measure Lord is my prayer for today! I noticed there was an extended length of ‘Thunder and Lighting’ yesterday in Wales, early Saturday morning about 5 am. Could this be a sign that God is ready to release the promised, former and latter rain! Time will tell. I have heard a lot of good news from Christian ministers, that people are starting to be drawn into churches this year; something has started to stir people. Pentecost the day the New Testament church started, I’m not talking about the denomination ‘Pentecost’ with the evidence of tongue talking! No I am talking about Pentecost with the Power to witness of Jesus as the Messiah!             Acts 1:8 A lot can be said about what Jesus intended His church (body) to be like; but too many self-appointed  Apostles, Prophets, Evangelist, Pastors and Teachers are running things (the church).    Ephesians 4:8 If Jesus was walking ...

Muslims Say Jesus Never Died

Did Jesus Really Die Friday acknowledged as the day when Jesus, the Son of God was crucified by orders from Pontius Pilot. Although Muslims will say Jesus was never killed, but the truth is, if Jesus never died Christianity is a lie. It might be a strange event to follow a leader who died. I would not be so ignorant to do such a thing.  You see Buddha, Mohamed and Abraham died etc…  The difference is Jesus died then rose from the dead three days later. Now you might say ‘well that happened 2000 years ago’ I would also agree with that statement, without a shadow of contradiction. The bible teaches us that the death of Jesus Christ, was to take our place, Romans 5 explains this fact,  The strange thing is the Quran Surat Maryam 19:33 even stated that Jesus was going to die! What a strange fact to be found in a book which the religious Muslims leaders teach, Jesus never died. They claim, God saved him by taking Jesus to heaven (pity he did not do the same fo...
