The Gospel



There is no more beautiful message than the Gospel (Good News) of Jesus Christ whether you believe it or not. That's the beauty of it too - it's there to discover. When you start on the journey, the roots will grow deep if you permit them and if you have a fertile heart.

The central theme of the Gospel is LOVE. LOVE walked on earth as a Man to redeem us with His blood. The only reason He did it was LOVE. We can experience forgiveness when we repent of our sins and accept Christ now. 'Behold now is the accepted time, behold now is the day of salvation.' 2 Corinthians 6:2

The other side of the Gospel is a warning. If we do not acknowledge Him as Lord on earth, we can have no part of His life in eternity. Jesus talked more about hell than heaven. There is no reason to doubt His words. Those not covered by Christ's righteousness have no access to the eternal God. Only He can deliver from the wrath to come (1 Thessalonians 1:10).  'Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son does not have life.' 1 John 5:12

Salvation is there for the taking and it's amazing! The Creator of the universe wants to redeem you, to commune with you and delight in you. The mystery of the Gospel has been revealed and most are oblivious to its content. Read the book of Ephesians and learn more about this wonderful revelation.

God bless you!

Did Jesus Rise from the Dead?

The Garden Tomb, Jerusalem. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. (1 Corinthians 15:14 ESV) In the past few days, I have read several articles that question the claims of Easter — ‘There is no evidence of the resurrection,’ the proponents write, ‘it is a fabrication, the Biblical text is not reliable…’ On the contrary, the existing evidence presents a solid argument. The apostle Paul asserts that the litmus test of Christianity is the resurrection. The more I read and analyze the evidence, the more I become convinced intellectually in addition to knowing the living Christ by faith. Testimony of Women The Gospel writers record that the first witnesses of the empty tomb were women: Now it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles. (Luke 24:10 ESV) In the first century, a woman’s testimony did not count; if the story had been fabricated, Luke and the o...

The Mystery that is Macedonia

When I first came to Macedonia on a visit in 2001, I found this little country so intriguing and breathtakingly beautiful that I happily accepted the invitation to return for a longer period. That ‘longer period’ has now extended itself to several years during which I have had many enriching, memorable experiences. I thought it might be interesting to jot down a few observations about the difference in culture. I appeal to my Macedonian readers not to misunderstand my intentions. What I have observed are customs and habits which are as normal to you as breathing and sleeping, but to someone from an entirely different culture, they are both interesting and noteworthy. It is always thrilling for me to explore how various nations function and it is nothing short of a privilege to experience a foreign culture first-hand. Hospitality Macedonians are a friendly, hospitable people. I do not know how many times they have almost literally killed me with kindness. Indeed, I have often...

Is Belief In God Blind Faith?

Stephen Hawking famously said: There is no heaven or afterlife for broken-down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark. Comparing the human brain to a computer, he firmly declared his atheistic stance. Dr John Lennox’s reply to this statement turned it on its head: Atheism is a fairy story for people afraid of the light! Who has the correct perception? Are we just living in a sphere of darkness without God or can we find evidence for God’s light and creatorial power? Evidence for God’s existence The order and design of creation. This is the most compelling sign in my opinion. I cannot look at the beauty and detail of creation without marvelling at the Creator. In the 1980s theoretical biologist, Dr Hans Meinhardt, began to wonder how the beautiful patterns of shells formed. As he researched, he discovered that the rules which govern the formation of the patterns in nature such as leaf arrangements, sand dunes and snowflakes, were the s...
