The Immaculate Conception!
The virgin birth of Jesus!
The world is always quick to move in on the Christian faith and try to tear it down, claiming that science is the new religion to prove things true over the myth of the old?
But they always get it wrong, because they lack faith and belief and fail to see the power of God and how He works with us humans!
Mary was chosen and she begat the God-man child, by the power of the Holy Ghost/Spirit and then she was healed to be a virgin for her husband Joseph to go on and have a family, so that no laws were broken under Judaism!
Matthew 1:20, Luke 1:68-72, 2:21, John 1:1-5, Acts 13:23, 32-33, Hebrews 9:25-28, 10:10.

Registration!
Happened to Jesus too.
Many governments are involved today in keeping travelling communities settled and registered and for some to have an address is of great advantage, but for others it is not?
The Romans called for a census of Israel and it was to be one of many for the region and throughout the rest of the empire, later Europe and the Britons would understand that they were loosing their liberty!
Luke 2:1-6, Matthew 22:19-22, Acts 5:37.

Overcoming war and Evil?
Memorialism!
Halloween is about the time of the pagan and the dead coming back to visit the living, Guy Fawkes is the 17th Century Bin Laden being foiled and then the nation gathers to remember the dead of the two world-wars and other conflicts that was part of the British Empire and Commonwealth?
For some they are great traditions to be kept and cherished, but they all represent death and the further we move away from the events, they have become less solemn and more of an event!
But us who have faith must see the great opportunity to share Jesus, that His light overcomes the darkness and that Good will always prevail over evil, wicked people and wrong motivation will neither stay nor last and not all as it appears in the world to be good and right it, since the world is full of delusion?
Amos 5:4, John 3:3, 14-21, Romans 6:22-23, 10:9-10, 12, Hebrews 4:12-13, 9:26-27, Revelation 3:20.

The tree of life and Righteousness!
Bearing good Fruit?
Wisdom is life says the writer of the proverbs and in the New Testament Matthew records Jesus saying, ‘That doing the right things bring blessings and salvation, something that is required of us!
We live in an ever turbulent society, were things are not getting better, but are going from bad to worse and in this last age this the way it is to go?
But as believers God has given to us promises in His word to hold on too!
Proverbs 3:18, 11:3, 13:1, 15:4, 27:11, Matthew 7:17-19.

Getting pushed On!
Please leave Us?
When one is a traveler of many and any type the rich people of the area will want us to move on and at times force outside that of the law has been used!
But as believers we should expect to be rejected by all and not worry about but take some advice from our lord to shake the dust of our feet and not return there!
If we are struggling then we should know that man may have side-lined us, but not God for it is He who grants us the inner peace of Jesus?
Psalm 118:13, Mark 6:11, Luke 9:5, John 14:27.

‘Known by its Fruit!
Active Believers?
Ekklesia is full of dead and ineffective believers, who laze about listening but never applying, some are just waiting in the belief that they will have rest in heaven and others compromise with the world after Sunday!
Jesus warns us that we will know them by their fruit, if none then they are destined to be burned up, but if they do, with pruning they will produce more!
And for us we need to keep away from these fruitless trees, and rather go the right way with God and the Kingdom?
Matthew 7:15-19, 12:33, Luke 6:43, Revelation 2:7.

Holding on?
To what we first believed!
I will never tell you that it is easy to be a believer in the death and resurrection of our Lord, who paid the one and final atonement for our failings, others might tell you something different but they are wrong!
We will be attacked for speaking the truth, having integrity and doing what is right, when the world lives on lies and bitterness backbiting each other for muck and jealous of us who seek for the precious things of Eternity!
But we must stay focused on Jesus and His words, doing what is right and pressing on to our promised Salvation?
1 Corinthians 15:2, Hebrews 3:6, 12-15.

Being Unwise!
Is both cruel and of no Benefit?
Many believe that they can get away and they do for a while dishonesty and cruelty, but everything does eventually catch up with us and we then have to pay the penalty for what we have done!
But the wise person recognizes their failings and tries to do what is right and so they are blessed, but when we know the Lord as our own Savior, this will be much more of value to us?
Proverbs 11:17, 12:10, 26:16, John 3:13-16-21, Romans 6:22-23, Hebrews 4:12-13. 9:26-27, 10:10.

Being grafted In?
Neither be arrogant or Proud!
This is a warning of the rise of antisemitism and replacement theology in Ekkelesia, which has ruined the Christian life for many over the generations and through it they may have lost their Salvation?
But we should know better, that the time of the Jews and Israel is not over and the end times will prove this to be true!
Today equity and right dominate political opinion no matter what side of the bed one might be on, they contain destructive forces and could be said to be the third front?
We on the other hand must accept the words of the Holy Bible as God’s truth and not something interpreted by the human mind, as all those claim when tearing our faith apart!
Romans 11:17-24, Verse 22.
Amos 5:4, John 3:3, 14-21, Revelation 3:20.
