H e(Jesus) said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.  They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them.  “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky?

The LORD is my Shepherd

Home  “ And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.”   [Philippians 4:19]    The LORD is my Shepherd   T he LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness    for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,    I will fear no evil, for you are with me;    your rod and your staff,    they comfort me. You prepare a table before me    in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil;    my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me    all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD     forever.  Despite its worldwide popularity, the Psalm is not for everyone. It is applicable only to those who are en...

I've been coming to look for fruit...

Image
Home  “ Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone for one more year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize it. If it bears fruit next year, fine! If not, then cut it down. ”   [Luke 13:8-9]    "For three years now I've been coming to look for fruit..." I t is not difficult to identify the fig tree as Israel, planted in God’s vineyard, that is, the world.  God looked for fruit on the tree but He found none. So He said to the vinedresser (the Lord Jesus) that He had sought in vain for fruit from the tree for three years. The simplest interpretation of this refers it to the first three years of our Lord’s public ministry. The thought of the passage is that the fig tree had been given sufficient time to produce fruit, if it was ever going to do so. If no fruit appeared in three years, then it was reasonable to conclude that none would ever appear. Because of the fruitlessness, God ordered to cut it down. It was only occ...

This is how anyone who wants to harm them must die. They have power to shut up the heavens so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying; and they have power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want. Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and overpower and kill them.  Their bodies will lie in the public square ...
