Additional views and remarks on news and religious events in the world

Marcus Ampe presenting: Some View on the World
Tannı̂m – drakōn – dragon – sea monster – jackal – desert animals and mythical monsters
Dragon (Heb. tannı̂m). The word dragon (Heb. tannı̂m; Gk. drakōn) appears much more frequently in the KJV than in the NASB and NIV, where it is sometimes replaced by the word jackal from Heb. tan (see also Whale, for another translation of tan and tannı̂m). In the NASB the word appears three times in the […]
Analogy – Works of God and the proportion of man’s faith
6 And having gifts different according to the grace given us, whether prophecy, according to the due proportion of faith; The Holy Bible: Containing the Old and New Testaments; Translated Literally from the Original Tongues (J. E. Smith, trans.; Ro 12:6). (1876). American Publishing Company. ANALOGY (Gk. analogia, “proportion”). Works of God. As applied to these, […]
Allegory – to allegorise
24 Which things are spoken figuratively: for these are the two covenants; one truly from mount Sinai, begetting to bondage, which is Agar. The Holy Bible: Containing the Old and New Testaments; Translated Literally from the Original Tongues (J. E. Smith, trans.; Ga 4:24). (1876). American Publishing Company. ALLEGORY (Gk. allegoreō). The term occurs only once […]

Thought for today “The babe swathed, a king, lying in a manger”
Tonight all over the world we shall be able to find people remembering the birth of Jesus (Jeshua), though that took place in October 4 bce. In the Jewish book of Wisdom (c. 1st century bce), King Solomon describes his earliest days, saying, “I was nursed with care in swaddling clothes (σπαργάνοις; spargánois). For […]

Expositional preaching models How to read the Bible
Preaching shapes those who listen to it, not just by what is being taught but, over time, by the way in which it is taught. When preachers give weight to the authority of Scripture and devote themselves to understanding the details of each text and the scope of the whole, they train their hearers to […]
Godly living a means for God’s light to shine
Jesus said, “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” (Matt. 5:16). Consistent godly living is a means for God’s light to shine, which brings him glory. Therefore, we want to encourage this response in our pastoral preaching. We […]
Putting together the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle
For many who try to understand the Bible, the process is rather like attempting to put together the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Certain pieces stand out and are easy to spot — identifiable by their bright colours and distinctive images. Others are obscure; where they fit into the whole is much more difficult to […]
The believer’s adherence
In numerous articles we presented already on our websites we spoke about the promises that we considered as the great foundation and source of the believer’s hope. The believer’s adherence Nevertheless, these promises have often been misconstrued: if God has made an everlasting covenant with us so that He will not turn away from us, […]
Connecting the Bible’s message to our world
Application Connects the Bible’s Message to Our World Careful explanation of the meaning of a Bible text will usually prompt two questions in the minds of the hearers: “So what? and “How?” The task of the application is to answer them both, so it is important to think about this during the preparation process — […]
Major concern of the introduction and conclusion of a sermon
Application Should Be a Major Concern of the Introduction and Conclusion Each section of a sermon has its own contribution and significance. But the start and finish are critical, so it is important to give careful thought to both, especially with application in view. The introduction will work best if it focuses on the major […]
To face conflict directly with the person involved
“”Moreover, if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone. If he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.” (Mt 18:15 KJ21) Matthew 18:15 instructs us to face conflict directly with the person involved. Others are brought into disputes when we cannot resolve an […]
Healing of the blind man
Who is this Jesus? In those days the crowd being very many, and having nothing they might eat, Jesus having called his disciples, says to them, 2 I feel compassion for the crowd, for already they remain three days with me, and have nothing they might eat: 3 And if I loose them fasting to their house, […]
Make Sure Your Life Matches What You Teach
Sometimes, to be faithful to God’s word, we must teach beyond our own levels of faith or obedience. To be faithful to our hearers, we need to acknowledge our weakness and ask for their prayers. There is no shame in that sort of realism and spiritual humility. But notice Paul’s words to Timothy: “Keep a […]
Practice Your Preaching Gift and Expect to Make Progress
“Do not neglect the gift you have.… Practice these things, immerse yourself in them, so that all may see your progress” (1 Tim. 4:14–15). The call to preach requires a commitment to lifelong practice and development, and it comes with widespread visibility and scrutiny. As we immerse ourselves in these priorities of life, others will […]

Paul’s relationship to a single member of one of his churches
Mentoring A Case Study: Philemon In the Letter to Philemon we have a unique instance of Paul’s relationship to a single member of one of his churches, Philemon. As we see how Paul deals with Philemon, we get a sense of what kind of wisdom we might find for mentoring from his example. Philemon is […]
Public forums
Communication is never one directional. While it is important to keep the congregation informed about decisions, it is equally important to solicit their feedback. In one church I served, we closed the monthly business meetings sessions with a public comments time. During this agenda item, any member of the church could give a public commendation […]
Public Communication
One way to stay in touch is to communicate in public meetings. In the absence of information, people will usually think the worse. While the people may not be entitled to confidential information about leadership discussions, they to have the right to know the criteria and processes leaders are using to make decisions. Most people […]
Pastors admitting mistakes
When pastors make mistakes, they should admit and take responsibility for them. When they do, it helps build healthy relationships between pastors and the people they serve. It can build loyalty, breed confidence, and reassure the people. Besides, it is the right thing to do. 13 He covering his transgression shall not prosper: but he confessing […]
Opportunities to teach being squandered
5 For this I left thee in Crete, that thou shouldest rectify things left behind, and set elders in the city, as I directed thee: 6 If any be irreproachable, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, not in accusation of licentiousness, or disorderly. 7 For a bishop must be irreproachable, as steward of God; not self-sufficient, […]
Life, Ministry and conflicts
Life and Ministry is Better with Friends, Even Though Pastors Will Have Conflict with Them Having friends in the church can create problems such as giving the appearance of favouritism or creating the possibility for betrayal; yet friends are essential to health, longevity, and spiritual vitality. Life is better with friends. While it is possible to have […]
The Medium is the message
Communication theorist, Marshall McLuhan coined the phrase “the medium is the message” to describe the effects communication media have on a message. He contended the way communicators say something is as important as what they are saying. Actually, he argued the medium was more important. “The content or message of any particular medium has about […]
Important decisions to make
We realise that preaching is necessary and that we must follow the instructions of the Nazarene teacher Jesus Christ. But to go out and preach the word of God, it takes a lot of things. It is not that we, like the apostles, can go from house to house to house and from residence to […]
Belangrijke beslissingen om te nemen
We beseffen dat predikingswerk noodzakelijk is en dat wij de opdracht gegeven door de Nazareense leermeester Jezus Christus, moeten opvolgen. Maar om uit te gaan en het Woord van God te prediken zijn er heel wat zaken nodig. Het is niet dat wij zoals de apostelen van huis tot huis tot huis en van woonplaats […]
Taking time for missionary work
As you could read in “Whatever it Takes” it can sometimes go wrong with the attention that certain preachers put in their work towards their family. It is not always easy to let the preaching work run smoothly. When one is young, one has the concerns to start a family, to ensure an income and […]

Concerning my religious views and websites - Betreft mijn religieuze overtuiging en websites:

Recent Posts from my ecclesia: Belgian Ecclesia Brussel - Leuven
Thought for January 31: Psalm 56:3 What To Do When Afraid

There is an infinite list of things that people are afraid of. Believers in God should trust Him and have no such fear.
Thought for January 30: Psalm 53:3 No one does good

We must dare to be honest and admit that sometimes we have a hard time always staying on the right path. That is better to call on God’s help to guide us through that vile life, so that we always remain firmly on our feet.
Today’s thought “Few and evil days” (January 28)

Spiritual riches which can be ours even now, bring no conclusions of disgust or sadness, nor any fear of being robbed. They will not save us from the sorrows of human life, but they will help us to bear the pain. They do not arrest the process of decay in the dark streets of a […]
Today’s thought “The judgement-seat of Christ” (January 27)

We commend to the serious consideration of everyone interested, the sobering fact that there is a day appointed when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, justifying the righteous and condemning the wicked. It is a fact that will encourage, strengthen, and sustain every person who, having been enlightened and joined the […]
Today’s thought “Kindness works everywhere” (January 26)

“Take a little honey.” That was the advice Jacob gave to his sons when they were going down into Egypt to buy food. They took many gifts: balm, spices, myrrh, nuts and money. But wise old Jacob added, “Take a little honey” (Genesis 43:11). People may take with them on the journey of their lives […]

Wie diegene aanvaard die Jezus zendt aanvaard Diegene Die Jezus heeft gezonden
“Voorwaar, voorwaar, Ik zeg u: wie hem aanvaardt, die Ik zal zenden, aanvaardt Mij, en wie Mij aanvaardt, aanvaardt Hem, die Mij gezonden heeft.’” (Joh 13:20 WV78) We moeten er voor zorgen dat we het goed hebben en moeten beseffen dat als iemand naar ons toe komt die zich aangetrokken voelt door Jezus Christus we […]
Van tenten naar stenen “Huizen van God” om Samen te komen om het Water van de Levende God te drinken
In het Oude Testament kunnen we lezen hoe bepaalde mensen, zoals onder anderen David, uitkeken naar hun Schepper.

Wat een Beit Kneset ons kan aanbieden
Een Beit Kneset (synagoge – shul – sjoel) biedt tal van spirituele, gemeenschappelijke en educatieve voordelen, waaronder: Spirituele verbinding: een plek om te bidden, na te denken en je relatie met God te verdiepen door middel van dagelijkse diensten, Shabbat en vakantieobservaties. Gemeenschapsopbouw: een kans om contact te leggen met mede-gemeenten, wat een gevoel van […]

Verschijningen van Christus: Aan discipelen in Jeruzalem
“En zij werden ontzet en verschrikt En meenden een geest te aanschouwen”. Toen de Emmaüsgangers in Jeruzalem waren teruggekeerd en toegelaten in de kamer waar de discipelen bijeengekomen waren, meenden zij opzienbarend nieuws te hebben. De anderen waren hen echter voor met de mededeling: “De heer is waarlijk opgewekt en is aan Simon verschenen. Wat […]

Gebrekkige maar verloste volgelingen van Jezus
Als we naar de handelingen van de apostelen kijken en hoe ze konden omgaan met Jezus woord, kunnen we vaststellen dat er in die tijd heel wat onzekerheden en soms zelf wat onbegrip was. In Het Nieuwe Testament krijgen we een beeld geschetst van de apostelen hun groei in het geloof, maar ook over hun […]
Veel zwakheden vertonend
Hoe vaak heb je iemand horen praten over hoe traag en incompetent de apostelen waren? Mark aarzelt, net als de andere evangelieschrijvers, niet om hun fouten en tekortkomingen te tonen (6:51 – 52; 8:33). Hij toont ook Jezus ‘verdorvenheid en teleurstelling bij hen (8:17 – 21; 14:37). Al hun gebreken en zwakheden worden volledig weergegeven. […]
De te planten bomen en levengevend water
Het boek Psalmen begint met het beschrijven van iemand die gezegend is (Ps 1: 1 – 3). “1 Gelukkig de mens die niet meegaat met wie kwaad doen, die de weg van zondaars niet betreedt, bij spotters niet aan tafel zit, 2 maar vreugde vindt in de wet van Jehovah en zich verdiept in zijn […]
Enkele cijfers voor 2025
Een kerk opbouwen niet een simpele zaak Het lijkt er soms op dat de Christadelphians een kerk uit het niets trachten op te bouwen. Alles wat ze hier trachten te doen moeten ze op eigen krachten verwezenlijken. Eerst en vooral is er het verspreiden van het Woord van God. Dat is eigenlijk de essentiële taak […]
Grote veranderingen in België
Voor de zeer weinige lezers die hier op dit platform langs kwamen, zal het opgevallen zijn dat er de laatste maanden hier weinig gepubliceerd is geworden.

Getting more people going to follow the real Messiah

What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world? Looking at the world, being sad, noticing that so many people are misled by big institutions that claim to be the only right church, whilst they do not follow at all the Bible teachings, nor Christ his teachings and do […]
Foretold Messiah 5 Old Testament pointing to John the Baptist and to Immanuel, Jeshua the Christ
Bible prophecies do not deal only with the ancient past. They also accurately foretell events that are taking place in our day. But at the moment we focus at numerous prophecies preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures (commonly called the Old Testament) which long before the man was born told about events which would happen in his time and around him, his betrayal, humiliation, torture, execution, death, and burial. From those writings of the Old and New Testament nobody should have doubts who that man is who is called Immanuel, the son of man and Messiah, born out of the root of Jess in the tribe of king David.
Foretold Messiah 4 From the seed of Noah and Abraham
In Scripture, all things are directed towards a man who was a servant of servants, in whom people should come to have faith. First we saw the connection with Eve and her seed, and in this article you may see the connection with Abraham.
Foretold Messiah 3 Bruised one to be taken into heaven as a servant and son of God
Already in the Old Testament we find the focus on a son of man who is called the son of God, who shall be the most pure set apart (holy) servant of God who was been told about in the Garden of Eden, to be the one bruised.
Foretold Messiah 2 a Voice giving The Word to His servants
Many Old Testament writers wrote about the prophet to come, about whom is spoke in the book of Moses and who shall be the special “Seed of a woman” given by God and who will bruise Satan’s head whilst his heel would be bruised with nails on the wooden stake.

Watchtower Victims Memorial Day
Ten years ago: Former Witnesses come together to mark Watchtower Victims Memorial Day A small number of innovative former Witnesses recently decided to organize a special day of mourning for those affected by the harmful doctrines and policies of the Watchtower religion. The first annual “Watchtower Victims Memorial Day” was held on July 26th and […]
Uncovering wrong sayings and unbiblical teachings

What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world? In Christendom there are lots of denominations but oh such a few, keep really to the biblical teachings. A lot of churches claim they are the only right church. In case they would follow all the teachings of Christ Jesus, […]
Those grafted in again
The apostle Paul wrote about the dispersion, the dispersed House of Israel. They had been “without covenant“, but Paul was sent out to recover them. So they were “grafted in again“ (Romans 11/23). Or, Grafted back in“. If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been […]
Cart ministry is back
Rob Mac wonders when the door to door will return? He wrote this a while back, and went sharing it again. Many Jehovah’s Witnesses hate the door to door ministry, although they won’t readily admit it. Many Jehovah’s Witnesses have developed ‘creative’ ways of counting their time doing this work, and many strategies for avoiding actually […]
Religion and believers #14 Church and state
Constantine wanted unity in his realm, and his call in 325 C.E. for a council of his bishops at Nicaea, located in the Eastern, Greek-speaking domain of his empire, across the Bosporus from the new city of Constantinople was in a certain way his goal to achieve some agreement by which many could live. Constantine […]
