ReceiveTheWORD: Jan 25, 2013
http://receivetheword.blogspot.com/2013_01_25_archive.html
Humbly receive the grafted-in Word, which is able to save you (James 1:21). Don’t Complicate the "Missionary Call". I was never called to be a missionary, nor was I drafted. I volunteered. No special call was needed. I chose to go; I wanted to go; I was compelled to go. And where I go is always determined by an open Bible and a stretched-out map of the regions where Christ is still unknown and un-praised! Don’t Wait for a Call. No aspect of mission is more bogged down with extra-biblical baggage than the...

Humbly receive the grafted-in Word, which is able to save you (James 1:21). It's For You To Decide. You can do what millions of others have done. You can settle down to the monotony of American life, get married, raise children, work, retire, die, and be forgotten. Or, you can become a pioneer, trail blazer, invest your life in a great adventure for God, be the first to give some unreached tribe the Gospel, and be remembered forever. It's for you to decide. I Heard It Again. Do something like that! Those...

ReceiveTheWORD: I Heard It Again
http://receivetheword.blogspot.com/2013/04/i-heard-it-again.html
Humbly receive the grafted-in Word, which is able to save you (James 1:21). I Heard It Again. I just admire you missionaries SO much! You give up everything to serve the Lord. I could never. Do something like that! Such a telling statement. And then in the same conversation: "How do you missionaries go to those dangerous places and terrible climates and yet work there so happily? Our "survival question" answer gives insight into the way Jesus lived and conducted His ministry. "Just as the Son of Man ...

Humbly receive the grafted-in Word, which is able to save you (James 1:21). More Wisdom from Dietrich Bonhoeffer. When another Christian falls into obvious sin, an admonition is imperative, because God’s Word demands it. When we allow nothing but God’s Word to stand between us, judging and helping, it is a service of mercy, an ultimate offer of genuine community. Then it is not we who are judging; God alone judges, and God’s judgment is helpful and healing. Restore us again, O God of our salvation,.

Humbly receive the grafted-in Word, which is able to save you (James 1:21). Why We Need Grace.

ReceiveTheWORD: A "Punditocracy"? What's that?
http://receivetheword.blogspot.com/2013/05/some-say-that-americans-live-in.html
Humbly receive the grafted-in Word, which is able to save you (James 1:21). A PUNDIT in today's western usage is a person thought to be very well informed; an expert or authority; one who believes that everything can be known and should be pronounced upon . . . and he's the one to do the pronouncing. That he should see and hear His. Who has given heed to His. The answer: "No one." Not the prophets. Not the priests. And certainly not the people. A few verses later: But if they had stood in...The temporal ...

Humbly receive the grafted-in Word, which is able to save you (James 1:21). Spending Yourself On Yourself. We have heard it or said it; usually to someone who seems to devote a lot of time to silly things or who leads a boring life. The Christian life, yet committed followers of Christ are sometimes viewed this way. 8220;Get a life! 8221; they say. But Jesus also speaks to us. In all four Gospels He warns, “The best way to destroy your life is to ‘get’ it! 8221; (e.g. Mark. 8:36). 8220;Get a Life! This i...

The Many-Sidedness of Christ | One Bright Hour
https://onebrighthour.wordpress.com/2013/01/03/the-many-sidedness-of-christ
The holy line where joy and sorrow meet. Thursday 3 January, 2013. The Many-Sidedness of Christ. This morning I was reading in The Way. A devotional book by E. Stanley Jones. Jones is so incredibly insightful and intuitive that it doesn’t take me long to get into deep thought about one of his topics. Today this one caught my attention:. How about the cook, the writer or the educator? Dated January 22, 1925. I found the clipping years ago in an old book and tucked it away in a file. I’m not ...Jesus chall...
