Souls At the beginning of the times יהוה (Jehovah) God, the Creator of all things, said, “Let the waters swarm with swarmers having a soul of life; and let the birds fly over the earth, on the face of the expanse of the heavens.” And God created the great sea animals, and all that creeps, having [...]

Wij kunnen blind zijn voor wat er rondom ons gebeurt, maar dat gaat ons niet vooruithelpen om stevig op onze voeten te staan in deze wereld. Hoe wij het draaien of keren maken wij er deel van uit en zullen wij er in moeten leven en er ons staande moeten in houden. Om ons in [...]

Another way looking at a language 8. Proverbs and verbatim As today in Dutch ( Nederlands), and probably also in other languages as in English, we can find a lot of words which got a totally different or new extra meaning, so it happened in the early centuries of our Contemporary Timetable as well. Though [...]

As Kevin Miller writes in his blog article about Job “Job is a book of tragedy, foolish counsel, mourning, but also great strength.” For us it can be counted as such a real romantic film: Job begins and ends happy and cheery, but in-between we get drama of high calibre. By the end of the very [...]

In his concluding speech in chapter 31, Job did demand that God appear before him, and in a sense, it is somewhat surprising for Elihu to appear instead. But can a man command God to appear? Do we have the right or authority to demand the Most High to appear before us? Job’s concluding remarks [...]

We can imagine that people get scared when they hear certain preachers talking as the three friends of Job. As the wife of a Southern Baptist pastor writes in her blog that one pastor saying that all the troubles which befell Job were his fault because he spoke forth fear into his life. That alleviated some [...]

All those bad things which come over this world is it whether or not punishment from God? This world is hit regularly by disasters. Today we can see enough signs that we have come in the End Times as described in the Holy Scriptures. In such a way coming difficulties over us are already notified [...]

Twee duizend jaar geleden waren boeken zoals 1Enoch en Shemihazah erg populair. Er is afgeleid materiaal in de DSS en Ginzberg, talmoed enz., maar het is nog steeds (#Ge 6:1-4) dat de hoofdbron van de afwijkende midrash is. “Toen de mensen talrijk begonnen te worden op de aardbodem en dochters kregen, zagen de zonen van [...]

Is God de Schepper van goed en kwaad? Afgelopen zaterdag spraken wij in de dienst over het kwaad en in welke mate God het toelaat en er aldus ook meester over is. Voor diegenen die geloven dat de duivel een gevallen engel is moet het kwaad dus reeds bestaan hebben voor de zondeval van Adam [...]

Gisteren zijn wij verder dieper ingegaan op het onderwerp van demonen en hebben onder ogen genomen hoe God goed en kwaad in de hand heeft. Mits er niemand hooggeplaatst is en wonderbaarlijke kracht heeft moeten wij besluiten dat God ook instaat voor het slechte zowel als het goede. (Jesaja 45:5-7,22; Micah 1:12; Amos 3:6; Job [...]

Vorige zondag bekeken wij het verhaal van de gedemoniseerde Legioen. De man die een onreine (Willibrord, Canisius, NGB, HSV, Lei en meeste andere Nederlandse vertalingen) of ‘boze’ (Boek) geest bezat. (Markus 5:1-20) Een demon bezitten was hetzelfde als een onzuivere geest hebben. Het is een Bijbelse manier om te zeggen dat er iets onzuivers is [...]

Sommigen willen met aandrang beweren dat het God is die al dit kwaad over ons brengt. Misschien kan men wel verwijzen naar de godsdiensten, maar dat is helemaal iets anders dan naar de Schepper van alles wat ons omgeeft. In de Oude Hebreeuwsche Geschriften kunnen wij voldoende aanwijzingen vinden dat het niet Jehovah, de God [...]
