@Knittinggrace Oh, I didn't know that! 😬 thanks for telling!

@Knittinggrace What is this program? Stand-up-comedia? I thought she "dropped dead" as a part of her show?
This or that, not anything I'd enjoy watching though.

Pray for Ukraine! I received this message from Pastor Sasha, near Kiev...

Hi Todd !
As from today , Ukraine will be going perhaps through the most dangerous 10-14 days with regard to full size war with Russia. Today Russia and Belarus began in Belarus (only 100 miles up north from Kiev) military maneuvers with a huge army (around 130.000 soldiers)

With this we also see absolutely crazy propaganda within Russia to prepare their general public for a full size war.

Also Russia makes every day more and more crazy demands to Ukraine and West, to deescalate this situation (like we / Ukraine now has to send back to the west all weapons that we got last couple of weeks)
Overall it’s a spooky feeling !
BUT - there is no panic here as for today ! We keep standing and believing God for protection!
Please remember Ukraine even more so in your prayers these next 10 days!

Thanks for being there for us !

PLEASE HELP
My wife and I had a premature child (26 week term, now 4 weeks post gestation)
Baby needs a blood transfusion. Blood banks, while asking Vax status and supplier, claim they are not sorting donor blood and you cannot request 'clean' blood. (free from mRNA and graphene oxide)

We NEED a type O negative donor for our son, anywhere within the continental US, who is:

Not vaccinated for covid
Blood Type = O negative
No serious disease
Willing to donate blood

"Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.
Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do: Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, ​I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule. Let us be of the same mind."

- Phil. 3: 12-14, 16

Let's run the race, "press on towards the goal", together as brothers and sisters!
No matter how far we have come, all that matters is that we're on the same narrow path. 🙏❤

@SWShea After she had been interrogated at the police station, the police had decided to drop the case, because they couldn't find her guilty of any crime. Sad to say, but it's the prosecutor general who's the one hunting her.

Christians' ability to speak biblical truth is at risk in Finland due to an overly broad hate speech provision in Finnish law. In a stunning case, a Christian member of the Finnish parliament, Päivi Räsänen, has been charged by the Finnish prosecutor general with three counts of "ethnic agitation." Each count relates to Räsänen's respectful expression of her widely-held Christian beliefs.

@Piquant This same thing is happening in Finland right now, they are loosing all restrictions during this month. Although they have stopped using the current vaccine passports, unfortunately they will still continue to develop the vaccine passport system. Most likely, there are plans to create a digital vaccine passport-ID for all EU members in the future, not a national one anymore.

'Covid-19: Switzerland Is Backtracking To End most Restrictions, & Will End Most COVID Law Including Vaccine Passports

The Swiss government has announced a proposal to lift most Covid restrictions, which are currently in place in the country, later this month. The Swiss Federal Council is expected to approve the proposal today.

As of Wednesday, people who have been in close contact with someone who tested positive for Covid-19 will no longer have to self-isolate.

@Chidiotamiri Yes, Jesus mission for coming to earth was to free people from their sins, so that they would be able to come to Father. But if someone doesn't want to hear his words, the Word which he spoke will judge him on Judgement day:

John. 12:47-48:
"If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not condemn him, for I did not come to condemn the world but to save the world.
The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has one who judge him: The word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day."

@Chidiotamiri I definitely believe house fellowships are something God is raising up all over the world (covid has been a help) and that will change the way we see "church". I think it's not so much about meeting in a "holy" building on a certain day, it's more about how newborn believers come together in everyday life, and they are the temple themselves together with eachother. 🙏

@tanjaostman Happy to hear about your situation 😊 Praying for recovery for you and your family! 🙏💕

@DevotionalTreasures Thank you! This was a word for me today! 😊
God bless you in the ministry He has given to you 🙏

@Crissy_1565 Actually, I believe that to preach the gospel, is also about preaching God's law, in that sense that everyone of us have sinned against a holy God and His standards: that's why we need to repent towards God and turn away from our sinful life.

To the woman, who was accused of adultery, Jesus showed his mercy when they wanted to stone her. And in the end Jesus said: "Go, and sin no more". So preaching about God's law (holiness) and his mercy goes hand in hand and is for everyone.

@Crissy_1565 I would like to add to Mr. Spurgeons quote from 1. Tim. 1:8-11:
"Of course, we know that the law is good if a person uses it legitimately, that is, if he understands that the law is not intended for righteous people but for lawbreakers and rebels, for ungodly people and sinners, for those who are unholy and irreverent, for those who kill their fathers, their mothers, or other people, for those involved in sexual immorality, for homosexuals, for kidnappers, for liars, for false witnesses, and for whatever else goes against the healthy teaching that agrees with the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me."

A second update about my friend Mikael who is still in hospital. Unfortunately they won't let him go because his oxygen saturation is too low. They wanted to put him in IC on ventilator - exactly what's not a good solution (according to many). Both him and his wife have refused it, and it seems like the doctors have respected it if I understood it correctly (we discuss in a Telegram group). His CRP was 84 some hours ago. His wife wrote that they won't let her visit him. We wrote that she should demand that, because she is married to him, and has just recovered from C-19. There is so much strange things going on when it comes to C-19. Why put him on a ventilator when they just have started to give him antibiotics for his pneunomia? And then they report the news about how many unvaccinated they have in IC. Please, pray for a quick recovery and for protection from harmful interventions!

In the strictest sense, there's a difference between a believer, a disciple, and a Christian, though we may still use these terms synonymously. There was a time when Jesus preached and many believed in Him (they became believers). That is, they responded to the altar call But Jesus said to those believers, "If ye continue in my words, then are ye my disciples indeed" (John 8:31). Thus, a disciple is the believer who follows Jesus Christ daily and CONTINUES to obey ALL His teachings.

The disciples in the early church at Antioch had become so Christlike that they were nicknamed, "Christians" (Acts 11:26). A Christian is a believer who has become a disciple of Jesus Christ and has so become Christlike that you can hardly tell the difference between the Master and the disciple.

Are you a sinner, believer, disciple, or a Christian?

@MaryMamuzich @Berrybunchfamily

Thanks so much. Knowing that there are brothers and sisters who pray for us is of great encouragement and, beyond that, we believe that God answers the prayers of his children. God bless you.
