August 09, 2007 This is Jesus` sharp response to a trick question about divorce from religious lawyers. What does Jesus say is God`s role in a marriage? What motivation to stay together might Jesus offer a struggling couple?That since the beginning of creation,God ordained that maleand female should be together,and not beseparated.It is only death that can mark a separation for couples,and if they do separate,then this is contrary to god's will,and his commandments,and hence it is a sin to divorce. elsewhere in Malachi God declares:Ihate divorce.(Malachi2:16) |

July 21, 2007 What role, if any, do people play in growing the field of God`s Kingdom?People play the role of planters or farmers.
they plant the word of god in other people`s hearts, when they share the word of God with them. After sharing the word, it seems like the job is out of their power- They do not know what happens, but eventually, the earth, God, gives power and life to the seed, and at the end, when the fruit is ready ''At the end of our lives, God gathers us to our rest-As parents, we have a job to do-begetting children-but once they are out of our wombs, growth, development, knowledge of God, is the work of God, and in the short span of our lives on earth, we are under the faithful care of our God, until we are ready to depart, and he gathers us to our Fathers. |

July 21, 2007 What does the contrast between the small seed and huge bush teach you about the kingdom of God?The contrast between the small seed and the huge tree teaches me that although the Kingdom of God had humble beginnings in the birth of Jesus in a little known town of Bethlehem, Its end is glorious, because it will encompass the whole world-The kingdom of God will be preached to all in the universe, and of course, at the end of time, all the nations and peoples will be gathered together to see their Lord and saviour, glorified and full of glory, as the Judge of the whole world.
He like the seed starts out lowly, but ends up all powerful and encompassing. |
