Intrinsic Tour de France 9th-13th October

Andy Walton wondered if there could be people around who could sponsor him as he will  do the Tour De France in October.... Well it's not the full Tour De France - but 180 miles of it!

He wants to cycle with Intrinsic to raise money for the Samaritans and had put a target forward of raising £1000!

Over 35 riders, will be taking on this 300km cycle -Starting in the shadow of the famous Mont Ventoux and finishing in 35 time Tour stage host town Nice on the Cote d’Azur.

Their ride echoes this year’s iconic 100th running of Le Tour de France.They will be cycling for 3 days and over 311 Kilometres, overcoming mountainous terrain to conquer their the Intrinsic Tour De France 2013.

Andy Walton had not ridden a bike for the last 15 years so this is going to be a bit tricky!

Being sure of their deliverance

In the old times before Christ Jesus (Jeshua) was born there were several people who believed in the Creator and his promises. They were sure that the divine Creator was with them and would continuously guide them through easy but also through difficult times.

The Holy Bible in Modern Greek translated by Neophytus Vamvas (Νεόφυτος Βάμβας): At Exodus 6:3 the divine name of God, the sacred Tetragrammaton, is rendered "Ιεοβά" (Ieová, that is "Yehova" (Eng.) or "Iehova" [Lat.], also "Ιεχωβά" [Gr.]). (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

In the Holy Scriptures we can find the Hebraic writers and the congregations of ancients who used their songs in worship to God and did not mind showing to others in Whom they believed and how He was guiding them and giving them deliverance.

Those men of God had a special relation with Him, whom they could not see. But they told others about their experience an ongoing, intimate walk with God and for that reason they could have faith in Him about their deliverance.

 John the Baptist baptizing Christ (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Psalms 32:6-11 The Scriptures 1998+:  (6)  Therefore, let every kind one pray to You While You might be found; Even in a flood of great waters They would not reach him.  (7)  You are my hiding place; You preserve me from distress; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.  (8)  “Let Me instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; Let Me counsel, My eye be on you.  (9)  Do not be like the horse, like the mule, With no understanding, with bit and bridle, Else they do not come near you.”  (10)  Many are the sorrows of the wrong; But as for the one trusting in יהוה {Jehovah}, Kindness surrounds him.  (11)  Be glad in יהוה {Jehovah} and exult, you righteous; And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!

Like King David those men could say these things and mean them because they like we knew they could count on the Only One God, the Elohim Hashem Jehovah. And they were willing to give their heart and soul (their whole being) onto the Eternal Creator and led them be fed by His Mighty Power the Holy Spirit.

 Today we still can look forward to the “songs of deliverance” with great joy and big expectations. For we have received the Full Grace of Salvation. By Jesus Christ the Messiah our relationship with the Creator is restored and we can go up to our Holy father in heaven. Because of the Offer of Jeshua (Jesus Christ) we have received the  proffered gift of salvation and presence with and friendship with Jehovah for all eternity. though we still may do faults we can count on it that we can get forgiveness of sins through Jesus the Messiah, who is the son of God, the only human being who resisted all evil and who managed to stay clean in the eyes of God, always doing the will of his Father above his own will.

God took care that we still can read the old songs of deliverance and we too can use them. Therefore take up the Bible and use those songs and prayers to worship the Only One God and show your thanks for His blessings.

Zeker zijnde van Bevrijding

In de oude tijden vóór Christus Jezus (Jeshua) werd geboren waren er een aantal mensen die in de Schepper en Zijn beloften geloofden. Ze waren er zeker van dat er een goddelijke Schepper was die bereid was om met hen te gaan door hun leven. Zij geloofden in Zijn bereidheid om hen voortdurend te begeleiden doorheen  de makkelijke maar nog meer doorheen de moeilijke tijden.

In de Heilige Schrift kunnen we de Hebreeuwse schrijvers en de congregaties van de Ouden vinden, die hun liederen gebruikten in de eredienst voor God en het niet erg vonden om aan anderen te laten zien in Wie zij geloofden en hoe Hij hen steeds bereid was om te begeleiden en voor hen verlossing te vinden.

Die mannen van God had een speciale band met Hem, Die ze niet konden zien. Maar ze vertelden anderen over hun ervaringen omtrent een voortdurende, intieme wandel met God en om die reden konden ze het geloof in Hem over hun bevrijding hebben.

Psalmen 32:6-11 De Schrift 1998 +: (6) Laten we daarom eenieder bidden tot U terwijl U zou kunnen worden gevonden, zelfs in een grote vloed wateren zouden ze Hem niet bereiken. (7) U bent mijn schuilplaats, U behoedt mij voor benauwdheid, U omringt mij met vrolijke gezangen van bevrijding. Selah. (8) "Laat me u instrueren {onderrichten} en u op welke wijze u op weg moet gaan;  Laat me raad geven, Mijn oog op u zijn. (9) Wees niet als een paard, net als de muilezel, met geen verstand, met bit en hoofdstel, anders komen ze niet in de buurt van u "(10) Talrijk zijn de smarten van de verkeerde;. Maar wat de ene betreft die vertrouwt in יהוה {Jehovah}, Vriendelijkheid omringt hem. (11) Wees blij in יהוה {Jehovah} en jubelt, jij rechtvaardigde; En zingt vrolijk, u alle oprechten van hart!

Net als koning David konden die mannen deze dingen zeggen en kon het werkelijk voor hen iets betekenen waarin zij hun volledige geloof konden plaatsen, omdat ze wisten dat ze konden rekenen op de Enige God, de Elohim Hashem Jehovah. En ze waren bereid om hun hart en ziel (hun hele wezen) aan de Eeuwige Schepper te geven om door Hem  geleid te worden en gevoed door Zijn grote Kracht, de Heilige Geest.

Vandaag kunnen we nog steeds met grote vreugde en grote verwachtingen vooruit kijken naar de "liederen van bevrijding" . Want wij hebben de volledige Genade van de zaligheid ontvangen. Door Jezus Christus, de Messias is onze relatie met de Schepper hersteld en kunnen we tot onze Heilige Vader in de hemel gaan . Vanwege het Bod van Jeshua (Jezus Christus), zijn offergave, hebben we het geschenk van verlossing aangeboden gekregen en de aanwezigheid van en vriendschap met Jehovah voor alle eeuwigheid ontvangen. Hoewel we nog steeds fouten zullen maken kunnen we erop rekenen dat wij vergeving van zonden kunnen krijgen door Jezus de Messias, die de zoon is van God, de enige mens die alle kwaad kon weerstaan en die erin slaagde om zuiver te blijven in de ogen van God door altijd de wil van zijn Vader te doen boven het verkiezen van zijn eigen wil te volgen.

God zorgde ervoor dat we nog steeds de oude gezangen van bevrijding kunnen lezen en dat wij hen ook nog altijd kunnen gebruiken voor ons eigen goed.Neem daarom de Bijbel en gebruik die liederen en gebeden om tot de Enige Ware God te bidden en uw dank te tonen voor Zijn zegeningen.

Darkness, light, burning fire, Truth and people in it

Dan Gaitanis wrote:

I'm on a train headed home from the best Bibleschool I've ever been to. Eastern was absolutely wonderful.

All three speakers said something that I can take away from it:
John Bilello said in his exhortation, "Don't confuse the truth with the people in it."
 I thought that was a great quote--quite often we follow certain people who we think have it all right, when in reality, they could very well be wrong. Not everything said in every Christadelphian class is exactly right on everything, whether the speaker is from the USA, Australia, England, or wherever.

Mark O'Grady made an object lesson--he said "Say we were in a complete eclipse and it was midnight and it was pitch black in here and someone came in the room and lit a candle/light. That light would shine, you'd be able to see it from all over the room. If they lit a bright light it would dispel all the darkness that's in the room. Say someone walked in here and they had a box, and you say 'well, what's in your box? (imagine Mark saying this like a really excited person)' and they said 'oh I've got a box full of darkness!' And you take it to the center of the room and...you take the lid off! What happens to the darkness, does it fill the room? So what's that telling us? Light overcomes darkness. Be not overcome with evil, says Paul, but overcome evil with good."

And Jonathan Bowen told us a sad story about one of his friends from high school, who he got in a debate with about heaven/hell-going. And Jonathan won the debate, but his friend thus left Christianity because he was no longer worried about burning in hell, so basically, even though Jon won the battle, he lost the "war", saying that we shouldn't be out to "win", but rather to "win someone over to Christ". How often do we do that?
 We have these stupid divisions and such and people leave because of them. So we might win the battle of being right, but we still lose in the long run because we lost a member of the body, or a potential member of the body.

I can't say enough about how wonderful it was to be with those brothers and sisters. It was my first time and I was welcomed with open arms and felt right at home, almost as if I'd known those people for many years. Those New England people are pretty cool. And I've known that xD
