The Return: Sometimes it's good to go back!

SHALOM!

We are now in the Jewish month of Elul, which precedes the fall feasts of the Bible. It is a time of reflection and repentance as we come closer to the Day of Atonement. The Hebrew for "repentance" is a phrase which means "returning to the answers." Repenting is returning, doing a 180 degree turn and heading home to the Father. But first, like the prodigal son, we need to become aware of our sin and confess it. It's a great opportunity to earnestly repent for the sin we see in our own lives, in our households, in our communities and in our nations.

Dr. Erez Soref, President

of ONE FOR ISRAEL

"If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:14)

Back to the Answers

Jonathan Bernis: I realized the Gospel is Jewish!!

Jonathan Bernis of Jewish Voice Ministries had questions: "Why are we here on earth? What happens after we die?" Although he went to ask his rabbi, his search for answers took him back to a place he was not expecting!

"As he showed me verses about my sin and separation from God, I felt the weight of my sin… I felt the presence of what I knew to be God himself. I had a desire for the first time to read the Bible. I really felt this pull to read the New Testament... I discovered that Jesus was Jewish! I found the answers I was looking for in my own Bible."

The Month Of Elul: A Time To Turn

In the Hebrew calendar, Elul is a special month of preparation and repentance. It precedes the “Ten Days of Awe” that start with Rosh HaShanah, the Feast of Trumpets, and continue until Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. It’s time to turn our backs on sin and turn towards God again. It’s time to turn away from the world and look to the face of the One who loves and leads us.

The word “Elul,” the name of the month, is written like this: אלול. These four letters, in Hebrew, can stand for “Ani LeDodi, VeDodi Li” (“I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine”) from Song of Songs 6:3. This reminds us of God’s great love for his people – and that this love should be reciprocal. The turning of repentance is like the turning in response to God’s great love and forgiveness – turning away from sin and the world into the embrace of our God who loves us.

Contributions Welcome

The following request applies to any of the christian ministries that are currently getting visitors from my blog:

I am currently blogging: https://webmaster220.blogspot.com
I would like to place a banner on the right side of my home page that promotes your ministry
If I do that and it helps your ministry grow and expand do you have a suggestion as to what type of commission or contribution could be paid to my ministry. The reason I am saying that is there are a lot of ministries out there that are buying advertising space online and yours could be one of them for all I know. I have been an affiliate marketer for years on my blog but no commissions have ever been earned even though I am doing everything required to be done to earn the commissions. My blog readers are just not interested in spending any money on any of the goods or services discussed in my banner ads and text links. To reply, use the contact form below this paragraph Thanks, Rick Livermore - Webmaster220

In Surprised by Hope: Rethinking Heaven, the Resurrection, and the Mission of the Church, top-selling author and Anglican bishop, N.T. Wright tackles the biblical question of what happens after we die and shows how most Christians get it wrong. We do not “go to” heaven; we are resurrected and heaven comes down to earth--a difference that makes all of the difference to how we live on earth. Following N.T. Wright’s resonant exploration of a life of faith in Simply Christian, the award-winning author whom Newsweek calls “the world’s leading New Testament scholar” takes on one of life’s most controversial topics, a matter of life, death, spirituality, and survival for everyone living in the world today. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

also a fan of Kevin Scott Livermore's book: The Theology of C.S. Lewis (A Topical Summary of his Best Work

(Updated 2020 Edition!)

Despite his status as one of the most influential and intelligent Christian authors of the 20th century, C.S. Lewis never thought of himself as a professional theologian. While he was well-read in many types of literary genres, he did not go to Seminary to obtain a Masters in Theology and study a year of Old Testament Hebrew and New Testament Greek. He was not a Pastor who preached sermons to a congregation for many years but a raw, honest philosopher and professor of literature who wrote as well as any Christian of his time could. He had a gift for clearly articulating his perspectives on a variety of issues. Above all, he was humble, in that he had an honest evaluation of both his strengths and his weaknesses. I believe this is one of the main reasons why he is still so enjoyable to read even after all these years. In terms of his theology, Lewis himself said he was an “Anglican but not especially ‘high,’ nor especially ‘low,’ nor especially anything else.” So the theology of C.S. Lewis is not something one can immediately discover by simply perusing a certain book of his to see exactly where he stands on certain doctrinal issues; it is much more subtle and convoluted than that. But in this book, you will find his different thoughts from his many books about certain Christian doctrines and topics pieced together in an easy-to-follow format (Lewis has written nearly 60 books but none of them are on systematic theology). This book offers very clear depictions of his theology concerning subjects such as the doctrine of inspiration, original sin, human depravity, human origins, evolution, intelligent design, theodicy, love and marriage, redemption, grace, new creation, and grief, as his authentic reaction to God after his wife’s death is conveyed. The final chapters also contain all of his greatest quotes arranged and sorted by topic as well as excerpts, quotes, and summaries from most of his books in a quick, easy-to-read, bullet-point format. These last two sections are a particularly great resource to draw from as you can quickly learn about the main points Lewis conveys in his bestselling books.

And the king was sorry, but because of his oaths and his guests he commanded it to be given.

And the king was exceedingly sorry, but because of his oaths and his guests he did not want to break his word to her.
