Boek: So het God my geroep... en was Hy nie getrou nie!

So het God my geroep. 

En was Hy nie getrou nie!

10 Getuienisse van God se pad met mense...

Hoe Hy hulle geroep het as Sendelinge...

En van God se trou...

Hy het hulle deurgedra!  Enduit!

Die boek was opgedra  aan alle sendelinge wat ja gesê het op God se roepstem en Hom gehoorsaam het.

Vir baie het dit veel gekos, maar meeste getuig agterna... dit was alles die moeite werd!

Laai die e-boek weergawe gerus GRATIS hier af. 

1. Gee erkenning en waardering aan 'n Sendeling wat jy ken. 'n Epos of WhatsApp boodskappie met 'n woord van bemoediging is altyd lekker.
2. Dalk wil jy 'n Sendeling aanneem (Hulle trek veral ook baie swaar agv die Covid-virus beperkings; 
• Kontak die Sendeling wat die Here op jou hart lê; 
• Vra waarvoor jy vir hulle kan bid. 
• Besluit of jy iemand dalk finansiëel kan begin ondersteun.

'n DONASIE vir die aflaai en lees van die boek sal natuurlik altyd handig te pas kom om ons bedieningsuitgawes vir ons KoFie-bediening te dek.

L.W. Jy is ook welkom om enige van ons ander boeke in ons Boekwinkel aan te skaf. Stuur die Inligting ook aan jou vriende; Vertel hulle.

Mike Burnard van Dia-Logos aanbieding

'n Zoom aanbieding van Mike Burnard oor Dia-Logos verwys.

As deel van ons Koninkryksfokus bediening om die kerk te help mobiliseer vir ons Getuienistaak, neem ek vrymoedigheid om die skakel van 'n onlangse Zoom video-opname van Mike Burnard van Dia-Logos met jou te deel. Dis regtig baie skitterende materiaal waarvan elke Christen-gelowige, of jy nou die moderator of leier van 'n kerk of gemeente is, of net 'n gewone lidmaat is, moet kennis neem.

Die video gebruik 130 MB se data (lengte net onder 'n uur). 

Mike deel verskeie PowerPoints wat hy gebruik, met baie skitterende en bemoedigende informasie wat hoop en rigting gee in ons onseker tyd.

Kyk dit gerus en deel dit met vrymoedigheid met vriende en met lidmate en leraars in julle gemeente. (lidmate, gee dit asb. deur vir julle dominee of pastoor - hulle is besige mense en sien die inligting dalk nie self nie.)

Mike deel 5 belangrike Kairosgeleenthede wat 'n belangrike invloed op die wêreld en die kerklike geskiedenis in 2020 gehad het en wat mens nie moet mis nie. Hulle organisasie Dia-Logos is beskikbaar om ervare sendingkundige raad te gee en die kerk te konsulteer met hulle programme vorentoe. Veral die konsep van "Twinning" of Tweeling-gemeentes wat hulle voorhou, bied praktiese moontlikhede hoedat elke gemeente in ons kontrei 'n wesenlike verskil in die groter wêreld daarbuite kan maak.

Kyk gerus vir meer op hulle webwerf by www.dialogos.co.za

Ek is oortuig dat alle Sending- en Kerkleier, elke Christen, hierby sal baat vind. 

Dis veral noodsaaklik dat mens nou na die uitdagende Covid-2020 jaar daarna sal kyk en daaroor besin met die oog op die nuwe jaar voor ons. 

Mag ons die nuwe uitdagings vir 2021 betyds raaksien en reg daarvoor gereed maak vir ons gemeentes, sendingkomitees en organisasies.

Mag Sy koninkryk nuut en vars realiseer in die nuwe jaar deur elkeen van ons se lewens.

O ja... Die opname skakel:

Ek stuur dit soos van Zoom ontvang; Om dit dus te kyk, moet jy reeds Zoom op jou toestel geinstalleer het. Jy kan dit van hier af doen:  https://zoom.us/download

At 24:10-14 Die boodskap van God - meer aktueel as ooit tevore...

Hierdie boodskap van God is meer aktueel as ooit tevore...

MATTEUS 24:10‭-‬14 AFR83

💥In daardie tyd sal baie mense van die geloof afvallig word, en hulle sal mekaar verraai en mekaar haat.

👉BELEEF JY DIT REEDS? HOU JY STEEDS PASSIEVOL VAS AAN DIE GELOOF IN JESUS CHRISTUS EN SY WOORD?

💥“Daar sal baie vals profete kom, en hulle sal baie mense mislei.

👉BELEEF JY DIT REEDS?

💥Omdat die minagting van die wet van God sal toeneem, sal die liefde by baie verkoel.

👉IS JOU LIEFDE VIR GOD SE WOORD EN VIR DIE EVANGELIE VAN JESUS, STEEDS BRANDEND? ❓

💥Maar wie tot die einde volhard, sal gered word.

👉ERVAAR JY TOENEMENDE TWYFEL EN VOEL JY OM OOR TE GEE? NEE, KOM ONS VOLHARD, GAAN VOORT OP DIE ENIGSTE WARE PAD VAN GOD! 

💢En hierdie evangelie van die koninkryk sal in die hele wêreld verkondig word, sodat al die nasies die getuienis kan hoor. Eers dan sal die einde kom.”

👉IS JY VOLUIT BESIG OM DIE EVANGELIE VAN DIE KONINKRYK TE VERKONDIG, SODAT ALLE NASIES KAN HOOR?

HOU VOL! VOLHARD DAARMEE!

ʼn Kort besoek aan 'n Sendingveld (Thailand)

 ʼn Kykie in die werk van ʼn Bediening van Suid Afrikaanse Christene wat destyds die roeping gekry het om in ʼn Onbereikte land te gaan werk. (Mins-bereik met die Evangelie)

Ek het hulle in 1998 in Richardsbaai ontmoet tydens ʼn World Trust seminaar in die gemeente Meerensee tydens hulle Sendingweek olv Di. Sampie Niemand & Tertius Naude. Ds Tertius is steeds daar.

Die Krynauws het in 1992 in Thailand begin werk en later in 1995 na Pattaya geskuif.

International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church

 “The wonderful thing about praying is that you leave a world of not being able to do something and enter God’s realm where everything is possible. He specializes in the impossible. Nothing is too great for His almighty power. Nothing is too small for His love.”  — Corrie Ten Boom

The International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church is November 1, less than four weeks away. So I thought for this edition and maybe the next I would give you what Corrie ten Boom calls an abundance of opportunity to “leave a world of not being able to do something and enter God’s realm where everything is possible.”

A variety of prayer resources are available from the VOM’s IDOP website (see related story below).

Each year I also turn to a lesser known Rich Mullins song called I Will Sing (via Global Christian Worship). It never fails to stir my heart for my persecuted family around the world. If you share it with your music ministry, they might have time to learn if before November 1.

Singing for those in chains,

Verslag van ons KoFie-projek - Okt 2020

Hallo Koninkryksfokus-vriende, 

Ons is steeds besig met ons Kofie-projek (Koninkryksfokus Internet Evangelisasie) - waar ons die evangelie deel met mense, veral onbereiktes wêreldwyd. Dit bly 'n wonderlike oop deur met baie geleenthede. Daaroor later meer...

Daarmee saam help ons een van die medewerkers op ons Facebook Blaaie (Bongani) wat besig is om 'n kerk in Duduza, Nigel te plant. Ons het in die Lock-down tyd gehelp met kospakkies vir hulle gemeenskap se oorlewing (en geldjie vir data om te kan kommunikeer). Het ook hulle gemeente besoek en saam met Dare-to-Love 'n groentetuin by hulle help vestig. Die gemeente en tuin gaan mooi aan. Ek kry gereeld verslag. 

Tans onderhandel en motiveer ons hulle om meer self-verantwoordelikheid te neem - 'n Paar besigheids en werkskeppingsopsies bv. 

1. Dat hulle mense die droë kospakkies koop en teen wins verkoop. 
2. Rekenaar opleiding (ons kon 'n paar ou laptops kry en hulle kan mekaar oplei ens.) 
3. Almero du Pisani van SAAWE, wat skaak-kompetisies reël, betrek hulle gemeenskap en veral kinders verder met allerhande skaak projekte (ook om skaakstelle self te maak en te verkoop).

Die fondse vir die uitgawes (kospakkies, aflewering, 3 Megavoice Zulu-Bybels wat ons kon voorsien ens.) Dankie vir almal wat Periodiek daartoe help bydra. Donasies (waarvoor jy 'n GRATIS boek kan aflaai van ons Boekwinkel) kan steeds gedoen word op enige van die volgende wyse: https://koninkryksfokus.blogspot.com/2020/07/payment-for-books-donation-for-our.html

Laastens: 

Ek en Almero gaan volgende week weer 'n Opvolgbesoek in Duduza doen (Ek sien dit vir myself as 'n Mentor/Dissipelskap-projek) - ek word net weer bewus van die nood oral, maar hier is 'n praktiese geleentheid om te help. 

Tans DRINGENDE BEHOEFTE: 'N BRUIKBARE GEBRUIKTE SLIMFOON (Bongani en sy vrou gebruik tans hulle simkaarte oor en weer in dieselfde instrument) 

As jy dalk kan help. Kontak my in Centurion by 0829269364.

Weereens DANKIE vir julle ondersteuning en voorbidding. 

Chris Visser, 

Koninkryksfokus - KoFie-projek

Persoonlik: My besluit oor die AS van die NG Kerk se SGV-besluite

My Besluit oor my NG Kerk lidmaatskap na die Algemene Sinode  van die NG Kerk se hantering oor Selfdegeslagverhoudings.

Hiermee maak ek bekend dat ek uit protes oor die AS se 2019 besluite oor Selfdegeslag-verhoudinge (SGV), aangesluit het by die Moreleta Kairos Netwerk met die oog op ’n toekomstige besluit ten opsigte van my eie Lidmaatskap van my huidige gemeente en groter NG Kerk.

Ek bied dit onder die volgende opskrifte aan:

1.    Waarom doen ek dit nou?

2.    Wat is die Moreleta Kairos Netwerk?

3.    Wie is ek en hoe raak dit my?

4.    Waarop baseer ek my teenstand t.o.v. die AS-besluite?

5.    Ander Materiaal wat my oortuigings hieroor gevorm het:

6.    ’n Paar Praktiese Vrae van my kant aan die Kerk

7.    Vrae aan kerkrade en leraars wat tans kies om neutraal te bly en die probleem dood te swyg.

Daar is, slegs op hierdie laat stadium, steeds ’n ander opsie! ’n Radikale standpunt-verandering – wat slegs moontlik is as dit met ’n  harts-verandering (in die ou taal – bekering, terug na die Bybel) gepaard gaan? Dit is waarvoor ek steeds bid en hoop.

Dankie vir u aandag,

Ter wille van die Koninkryk en die Eer van God.

Chris Visser, Centurion.

Report from our Mosque Visit

We visited a Mosque on Saturday and we had a very nice meeting with the Muslim leaders there; they are really very friendly and hospitable (they even invited us for a wonderful brinjani meal afterwards and we enjoyed the meal and nice conversations very much).

They also explained the traditions of Islam and their principles; the prayer times, pillars of faith, how they pray etc. According to all this, and the free booklets and English Quran that we all received as well, your Religion is surely impressive, a "Religion of justice, peace, mercy and forgiveness". Your people are surely very dedicated in their faith.

Over the weekend I ponder about it all.

Today during my Bible Study (as I do daily as a Christian) I came in my Bible at a passage -

Romans 10:2‭-‬4 NET - that I felt accurately also describing the Religion of Islam. I feel I must share it with you.

Please consider and rethink this with me...

That is the Apostle Paul, a Jew, speaking about his fellow Jews and their religious dedication and zeal for God (the Jews had a lot of rituals and laws that they believed they had to perform to satisfy God and to get righteousness from God).

"I can testify that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not in line with the truth. For ignoring the righteousness that comes from God, and seeking instead to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit to God’s righteousness. For Christ is the end of the law, with the result that there is righteousness for everyone who believes.

I personally are so privileged to have the experience of the joy of being sure about my own Certainty of Eternal life and to be a child of God. If you are interested in how we as Christians understand the Gospel (the Good News of the Bible) on how to get that Certainty of Forgiveness of sins and Eternal Live, here is a short summary - "Got Eternal Life? " . https://www.gotquestions.org/eternal-life.html

https://bible.com/bible/107/rom.10.2-4.NET

[This is the Report as I wrote it on the Page: Conversation with Muslims; Please respond to this; How are you feeling about sharing the Gospel with Muslims?]
