i believe in….

the following

1. The divine inspiration, authority, sufficiency and inerrancy of the Bible.


2. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. One God - three Persons.


3. The virgin birth, the perfect deity and the perfect humanity of the Lord Jesus Christ.


4. The death of the Lord Jesus Christ upon the cross as the only perfect and effective sacrifice for sin, His subsequent burial, literal resurrection and ascension into heaven.


5. The personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ to the earth for and with true believers in Him.


6. The fall of man which renders all people sinners before God, necessitating the Sacrifice of Christ and the regenerating and sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit.


7. The justification of the sinner by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone.


8. Death is not final. There is life after death and the dead will be raised either to life or condemnation.


9. The personality of the Devil.

thank you to The Fuel Project for this.  short and precise.  uncomplicated and truthful.

    Cariena, ek is baie bly om te sê dat ek jou geloof deel. Ek stem saam en wil net byvoeg dat daar ook 'n werklike hel gaan wees.
    Baie mense glo in God, maar dit is nie noodwendig die ware God nie!

Lockdown Diary Reflections

LOCKDOWN DIARY INTRODUCTION After following the Covid-19 outbreak, worldwide, for the past 4 weeks, as closely as I can, being in contact with friends and family WORLD-WIDE as well as observing the online behaviour of people in South Africa for the past couple of weeks, I have some reflections on this matter. I want to document (for my own record) how I see and feel about this issue.  I also want to see how my opinion about this might evolve during this unfolding worldwide crisis and defining moment in history. For those of you who read this: It is important to note that I am a Bible Believing Christian. I believe God is completely Sovereign and in control.  I believe that if I accept the GOOD from God, I also need to accept the BAD (Job 2:10) and that He works out EVERYTHING to its proper end, even a wicked day of disaster (Proverbs 16:4) I believe that by doing GOOD, the ignorant talk of foolish people will be silenced (1 Peter 2:5) - during this perio...

facing your giants.....

we all have them. giants in our lives.  those things that are like mountains and prevent us from being who God intended us to be when we surrender to Him.  but for some reason, we just can't face those giants.  we pretend they are not there, we take detours when we see them coming, or we feign ignorance when someone mentions them - but no matter how we try, they will always be there and you will always be in their shadow until you face them.  head on.   David did that.  he faced a huge giant - Goliath.  David only had a slingshot, a few pebbles and FAITH.  Goliath had the armour and the whole army behind him!  David had ridicule and laughter - no one thought he could do anything but fail.  yet he did not fail.  he triumphed over the giant at that stage. At a later stage in his life, he would have to face more giants.  adultery and murder as well as disobedience to God.  he did not fare so good with these gi...

Christian Conduct

On our farm in Pennsylvania there were cherry trees which were attacked by little parasites of some sort. A parasite would get into a little branch, pierce the bark and exude a gum. Then the branch would get a knot on it and bend. All over the trees were those little bent places with gummy knots. After two or three years, those cherry trees would not bloom. If they did, the blooms usually dropped early and the cherries did not come to fruition. If the blooms did not drop early, the cherries would be flat and undeveloped or only red on one side. My father was not too interested in fruit. He was interested in cattle, horses and grain. If my father had known how he could have protected those trees before they got into that wretched condition and properly sprayed or treated them, he could have gotten rid of the worms and bugs and saved the trees and fruit. I believe that a pastor who is content with a vineyard that is not at its best is not a good husbandman. It is my prayer that we may be...
