‘For this we say to you by the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep.
For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.
Therefore comfort one another with these words.’
1 Thessalonians 4:15-18
NASB
The Marks of True Conversion

Heavenly Father,
I thank You for every single person You have placed in my path throughout my life for your wonderful purposes.
Each of them taught me something.
Some have taught me to forgive, others to love, others to be careful, others to smile, others to cry and others to have courage.
Many have taught me how much progress I have already made and others how much there is still to work in my life.
I thank You, Father, because You have guided each person to enter my life for my good according to your purposes.
Some have remained close to me, others have taken other paths, and still others have recently entered my life.
Bless each of them. Bless all my friends. Bless all my brothers and sisters in Christ.
Father brings them the warmth of a Christian embrace from me.
In the name of Jesus.
Amen.

It lowers your immune system (what you need most when dealing with people who get regular vaccines and shed.) You need a restful restorative night's sleep almost every night to look, act and feel your best. Your body recovers when you sleep, and if you're not getting sleep your organs are not recovering and will have problems you don't want. The Absolute Best Way to Stop Your Insomnia and Finally Get a Deep Good Night's Sleep. #insomnia #sleep #recovery #covid-19 #immunity

For appr. 15 years I’ve been longing for a more NT way of doing church, and was excited when I discovered books about it. But where I live most Christians are more concerned about traditions and to be faithful to their relatives (who often belong to the same church), than abut seeking the truth. Yesterday I was asked for the first time in all these years if I want to teach on the topic of Organic Church/House Church, and it made my happy! It was in a home group we joined a year ago, with other unvaxxed – not because we felt superior, but because we were excluded from the rest of society. They even implemented covid passports for a while.
I share some PPT slides with English quotes, and books that I recommend on this topic (there are many more books, but I own these). I included BTJ books by @sinbach in the list – not that they explicitly teach about house church, but they show examples of people who gather in underground house churches, even if they might not know that it's Biblical.
I was sad and a bit surprised to read that the Pastor of Swedens largest Pentacostal church, Niklas Piensoho, has given out a statement that people living in same-sex relationships can be both members and leaders in a Christian congregation. He also claims that the Bible doesn't say that it's a sin to live in a homosexual relationship.
I think we have come to a point that we need to choose in which camp we are standing: with the Bible-believing congregation (who will meet persecution) or with the lukewarm congregation that falls away from His word. The division inside the church has started, but dear brothers and sisters, let's not make compromises! 🙏

@tanjaostman Insanity is a rebellion against the sane of the world. Unfortunately for us, the sane, it has also become Politically Correct. Therefore, the world leaders do their believable best to prove themselves insane in order to gain more political power. That is how Satan laughs in the faces of Christ's disciples. You are correct in saying it is a clown's world! But we are not of this world, by the grace of God.
