Love in action

“We have to take him to Jesus.” The other three men stare at their friend with confusion in their eyes. “Jesus?” They ask. On the floor, groaning, lies a paralyzed man. A childhood friend. A brother.   “Yes, Jesus. I have heard that He is back in Capernaum again. In Peter’s house. In every town that He has been to, He has healed many people. They say He is Messiah. He will heal our friend as well.” “Peter’s house is on the other side of town. How do you suppose we get him there? We don’t have a wagon!” “We will carry him there on his bed.” The walk to Peter’s house are challenging. It is scorching and the paralyzed man seems to gain a few pounds with every ten meters. In their haste, they forgot to bring water.  Resting along the way, is not an option. His groans have turned to whining and begging. Years of being bedridden have taken its toll on his body. This trip might even kill him. After three hours they reach Peter’s humble little house near the wa

Is it a condition to being Spirit-filled? When, where and how should it be practiced? What is it? Before looking for answers to those questions, let me first tell you my story… I was born again at the age of thirteen. Because I was raised in a Christian home and attended Church and Sunday school on a regular basis, I must have heard the Gospel a million times.

The next morning I woke up a new person. It was a definite awareness in my soul. All of a sudden every word of the all too familiar Church songs had meaning and brought indescribable joy to my heart. The Bible opened up and I couldn’t stop reading. I would spend hours brow

We know that everything, including us, are made up by zillions of small building blocks, called molecules. Don’t worry, this is not a lesson in science, but in order for us to understand an amazing statement in the Bible, we need to first understand some science. So, what is a molecule? “A molecule is the smallest particle in a chemical element or compound that has the chemical properties of that element or compound. Molecules are made up of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds.” (WhatIs.com) Right, so we see that the molecules are being held together by chemical bonds between the different atoms. I found the following interesting information regarding atoms:  “The nucleus of the atom contains positively charged and neutral particles. Mutual electrostatic repulsion between the positive protons would drive the nucleus apart if it were not for the ‘strong force’ which binds the nucleus together. There is thus an active force imposed on the universe,
