The Greatest Action Movie Being Staged That You Have a Part in

The Greatest Action Movie Being Staged That You Have a Part in

“You will bruise His heel, but He will crush your head” – Genesis 3:15  If you had to hear these words at the beginning of a movie, you would sit in expectation of a real humdinger – an action-packed thriller where evil goes up against good and seeks to overthrow it, but where good has vowed punishment against the perpetrator of evil and to restore complete law and order. What makes for a good movie? In my perspective, it would…

The Creator of Music

The Creator of Music

There is a fascinating aspect of music in respect to God. In 2 Timothy 3:16–17 it says, “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” This means that from the beginning it was God-breathed; that includes Genesis 1:1. An interesting theme that runs through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation is the number seven. It’s the number of perfection,…

The Sacrifice of Jesus

The Sacrifice of Jesus

“Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness [of sins]” – Hebrews 9:22 We see this clearly evidenced right from the beginning: Adam and Eve sowed fig leaves together to provide a covering for their naked bodies (Genesis 3:7). God killed an animal and used the animal skin to clothe them (Genesis 3:21). Cain, the firstborn into the world, offered up the produce of his hands (fruit and vegetables) to God, but God rejected him. Abel offered animals, which…

Christ, the Crucifixion and the Choice

Christ, the Crucifixion and the Choice

Dear Reader, I assume you know that this weekend is the Easter Weekend. However, I wouldn’t be wrong to assume that not everyone knows that this week is also the Jewish Passover, ending on Sunday, 20 April. Sadly, the connection is often missed and in many cases never known. The Passover In the time of Moses, Pharaoh would not let the Israelites depart from their captivity, and what followed were ten plagues with the final plague being what’s known as…

What was Jesus like?

What was Jesus like?

“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given” — Isaiah 9:6a It is amazing how without fail the common questions that get asked upon the birth of a child. The first is obvious, is it a boy or girl and what is their name? Then, amusingly, the focus shifts to who the child looks like. Speculative questions are then asked such as what will the child be like, become, in whose footsteps will they follow,…

The Star of Bethlehem

The Star of Bethlehem

“We saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him” — Matthew 2:2 Right from the outset God gave stars as a means for navigation (Genesis 1:14). Here again, a star led the wise men to Bethlehem where the new-born King of the Jews,  Jesus, was cradled in a manger. Man, however, has not just used the stars for navigation but began using them for guidance, and today millions of people are being influenced by stars. There…
