How things continue to change! Now we see our government suggesting we change the laws of marriage being between a man and woman (it can’t be any other way according to the Bible) to making it say between two adults!
Earthquakes, wars and rumours of wars. Matthew devotes a whole chapter in his book (Matt 24) telling us all the things that will take place, which when you combine them all would make one wonder if anybody can endure all the things written about? Jesus Himself says but for the elect’s sake these days will be shortened. Another verse tells us he/she who endures to the end will be saved.
We all know that enduring means to be found busy till He comes, not sitting or cowering in abject fear until He snatches you out. Rather we are to be declaring the good news as to what Jesus came to do when He entered the world bringing glory to God in the highest and on earth peace and good will to all men. Remember, He is the Prince of peace!
Luke 5:18,19 reaffirms this, that the gospel is Good News. He brought it and in Matt 28:18-20, He sends us out with authority and tells us to go and make disciples. It is in the doing that we are His servants, not in the knowing.

Jesus Christ has made us Kings and Priests to His God and Father (Rev 1:5-6). What an amazing statement that is made here about forgiven sinners like you and I, but what a great truth it is which is often completely overlooked. And yet as we continue to look into His Word, we find even more that we are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light(1 Peter 9:10).
In 2 Cor 5:20,21 we see Paul stating that we are ambassadors for Christ with a function - God pleading through us, asking people to be reconciled to God through Jesus Christ.
Pleading, proclaiming, reigning, interceding - how can we do that without becoming proud? Be like our Master Jesus (Phil 2:5-8; Luke 22:25-30). As a servant, we function in the role of kings, priests, and ambassadors. We are to be reigning, proclaiming, pleading and interceding and all for the Father’s glory and the extension of His Kingdom rule upon the earth.
With much love,
Bernie
