PASTOR FAILS TO RAISE DEAD!

pole headline at Ackland Park
   

I saw this headline on the street pole and I was very much interested in reading it. When reading it the Pastor actualy promised to raise the deceased.Then i ask myself what exatly is the function of a pastor? http://www.biblicalperspectives.com/books/women_church/4.htmlThe role of a pastor is to represent the congregation,to be a worshiper ,to set good examples to the fellow saints ,an administrator and has a certain gift from God (corinthians). To go around making certain promises is certanly not setting good examples. Yes a man of God must be able to perfom miracles only to show the power of God, not empwering themselves. How true is it that the pastor actually promised to raise the dead? As we all Know that Daily Sun is actuallly not a credible source. The thing that really worries me is that the media frames certain things to the society . They have framed the pastor as a person who raises the dead. That's not what a pastor is ordained to do. How long will the media continue to brainwash our minds on meaning of things? Especially christianity. The media give thier own definition of what christianity is and I am definately sure that these definitions they give are not what in reality christianity is.

RED BULL PLAYING WITH RELIGION

Jesus wlaks on water:Red Bull advert

 Red Bull has made an advertisement where Jesus walk on water but one of the desciples ask if its one of his miracles, the other responds and says that its probably the Red Bull that he drank. Jesus responds that you just have to know the rocks and your stepping stones. http://www.peherald.com/news/article/5306. Red bull really like kidding around with religion specifically christianity. This is not the first time they do so. There was also an advertisement that was about Christianity where the Angels where said to have wings because they drank red bull .I really find it very disturbing for red bull to belittle christianity like this. When ask to comment the communication department of red bull said that they where just kidding around. Where do you begin to build your communication strategy on such a risky topic as this? Why do you kid on things like this? Well this kidding has surely destroyed their reputation because many christians are not ever going support it. A Catholic Bishop has even argued christians to stop supporting it. Their communication managers are surely against religion. Why do they continue using christianity even if they were banned the first time around? I really do not understand. Apparently the CEO of Red Bull died late march .http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303812904577289344108271080.html. Do we then say ,God is punishing him? we do know. Well I hope all the bad publicity has made them realise that you do not play with Christianity.

THE LIGHT OUTSHINES THE DARKNESS

                                              

In the beggining God saw that the light was good he seperated it from the darkness, Genesis 1 verse four .What exatly is the light and what is darkness? The light is defined as  everything that is bright ,visible to the eye,clear and bright. The darkness is the absence of light . all the things that are not clear, they are gloomy, blank and not visible. When God created the world why did he seperate the two? Why was the light good than the darkness? When it is night the lights go out and it is very scary to stay in the night/darkness. It is also impossible to work in the light. http://jaeka2011.wordpress.com/This meaning that there are no benefits at all in darkness world. John 12 verse 25 says that a man that walks in the dark does not know where he is going. can you see that the darkness has no good things at all ,that is why god saw the light as good . Biblically a person who is not saved is compared to the man that is walking in the darkness. it is so because if you are living to satisfy your flesh you have not yet seen the light, you do not have any authority over your flesh but it owns you. If you are in the dark do not despair there is a saver who will take you away from the darkness and walk you in the light. It is Jesus Christ. In the book of Matthew 4 verse 16 it states that Jesus showed light to the darkness and saved the people living in the darkness. http://www.revelife.com/727284136/walking-in-the-light/ Martin Luther KIng the Junior once said 'darkness cannot drive out darkness but only the light can .Only the light can outshine the darkness. Ask yourself in which world do you belong to? is the gloomy world or the visible world?
