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.

  1. 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...
Below teaching is NOT an exhaustive study on this topic. Biblical Love: When does Biblical Love Overlook or confront a sin in another person’s life? To overlook an offense/sin means not to focus on the wrongs done against oneself, refusing to retaliate or seek revenge, and letting affronts go. It is an act of forgiveness and wisdom. One meaningful way to show love to fellow believers is by choosing to not constantly confront them on the slightest offenses and infractions, for example a harsh word spoken, a child’s room not being tidy or not being invited to a social gathering. The book of Proverbs highlights this concept in Proverbs 19:11, stating, “Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense”.    1 Peter 4:8 states that “Love covers a multitude of sins. Some offenses, though, must be confronted. Here are some steps to consider when deciding whether to confront or overlook an offense: 1.        Examine Yourself: ...

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...
