DAILY, WEEKEND, AND HOLIDAY INTERNET EVANGELIZE TO THE WORLD MINISTRY

Mundy's Quote for the Day Reverend Lynwood F. Mundy Bless the  Lord , O my soul: and all that is within me, bless  his  holy name. Bless the  Lord , O my soul, and forget not all  his  benefits ( Psalm 103:1-2   KJV ):

Words Not Heard By Human Ear Excerpt Both by day and by night, God’s creation is speaking  ( Verse  P s 19: 2 ), but this  speech is not heard with the human ear.  Verse Ps 19:3  should read, “There is no speech  or language where their voice is not heard” (NIV). We hear the voice of God in  creation by seeing His wisdom and power. Certainly so complex an entity as our  universe (and the universes beyond our own universe) demands a Creator and  Sustainer. To believe that the universe evolved out of  nothing and arranged itself  in this orderly manner is folly.  More Wiersbe, Warren W.  Wiersbe’s Expository Outlines on the Old Testament .

December 27   He ever liveth         Heb. 7:25 It is our hope for ourselves, and for His truth, and for mankind. Men come and go. Leaders, teachers, thinkers, speak and work for a season, and then fall silent and impotent. He abides. They die, but He lives. They are lights kindled, and therefore, sooner or later quenched, but He is the true Light from which they draw all their brightness, and He shines for forevermore.

December 27 LO! HE COMES, WITH CLOUDS DESCENDING Charles Wesley, 1707–1788   Look, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him, and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be! Amen. ( Revelation 1:7 ) When Jesus made His first entrance to earth, He was seen by only a small group of people—a few lowly shepherds and later by some wandering wise men. Bethlehem’s stable birth attracted little attention and had limited immediate effect upon the rest of the world. It was nearly 30 years before Christ’s earthly ministry gained much notice. What a contrast it will be when He returns for His second advent—every eye “shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory” (Matthew 24:30). Even those who crucified God’s Son will see and mourn, as will people from every tribe and nation because of their rejection of Him. But for those who have trusted in His redemptive work, the ...

Shrine equipment ‎All the artifacts pictured here come from a room (2 by 1 m) in Megiddo. The room dates back to the 10th century BCE. The depicted cult objects involve altars of burned offerings, sacrificial pillars, and other cult equipment. These objects were probably stored in this room and served as equipment for a shrine nearby. If needed, the objects could easily be brought from here to the shrine. ‎ 1 Sam 9:12–25 ; 1 Sam 10:5 ; 1 Sam 22:6 ; 1 Kings 3:2 ; 1 Kings 11:7 ; ‎All the artifacts pictured here come from a room (2 by 1 m) in Megiddo.

Jerusalem: The Church of St. Peter in Gallicantu ‎Jerusalem. The Church of St. Peter in Gallicantu—meaning the cock’s crow—was built in 1931 by the Assumptionist Fathers on the eastern slope of Mount Zion. This was identified by the Byzantines in the 5th century A.D. as the site of the house of the High Priest Caiaphas. They built a church in memory of Jesus’ words to Peter: “Before the cock crows thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out and wept bitterly” (Matthew 26:75).

Beware of the World Excerpt John begins this verse by issuing the command that the believer is not to love the world or anything in the world. Initially this command sounds strange given the fact that  John 3:16  says clearly and beautifully that God loves the world and the fact that  1 John 2:2  says the Son made atonement for the sins of the world. What is the difference? The difference is found in the way John uses the term  kosmos  in each instance. Contextual considerations are crucial. In these epistles and the Gospel, John employs this term in three distinct and basic ways: (1) the created universe ( 3:17 ;  4:17 ; John 1:10 ); (2) the world of human persons ( John  3:16 ;  1 John 2:2 ); and (3) an evil organized earthly system controlled by the power of the evil one that has aligned itself against God and his kingdom ( 4:3–5 ;  5:19 ;  John 16:11 ). In these verses John uses the third meaning. One should note that Joh...
