“LASS DAS NICHTIGE, TU DAS WICHTIGE!”

Are you on a “sustainable journey” or are you on a journey to a new heaven and earth, the home of righteousness?

Not too long ago I went to the local office here in Kaitaia to pay our rates and picked up some information on our ecological footprint. Two questions are asked: “How big is your ecological footprint?” Question number one. “Do you want to reduce your ecological footprint?” Question number two.

The information mentions also our “sustainable journey.”

To go on our “sustainable journey” we can sign up at the Far North Environmental Centre. There we will get more practical information and help on how to reduce our ecological footprint. Help is available to leave a greener footprint on our planet. The service is FREE and we will also receive a FREE Sustainable Living Activation Pack.

Not a bad journey!

I LEFT MY FOOTPRINTS AT HOUHORA

FAR NORTH, NEW ZEALAND

While working in Kaikohe with the United Maori Mission (UMM) one of my Maori friends raised up a Gospel Band with the name “GET REAL”. So let us get really REAL!

In the BIBLE – the Word of the Lving God – we are reading about the real journey. It is the journey to a new heaven and a new earth. It is the journey to the home of righteousness. We are reading about this journey in Second Peter 3:13. Please read the verse.

In my Bible Second Peter chapter three has the headline “THE DAY OF THE LORD.” Second Peter 3:7 says: “By the same word the present heavens and the earth are reserved for FIRE, beeing kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.” Second Peter 3:10 says: “………..” Read also what our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ himself says about Heaven and Earth: Matthew 5:18; Matthew 24:35; Mark 13:31; Luke 16:17; Luke 21:33.

The prophet Isaiah has also a lot to say about this theme. Here we are: Isaiah 24:18-20; Isaiah 65:17; Isaiah 66:22.

Have you signed up to go on your journey to the new heaven and the new earth, the home of righteousness? Don’t let the time run out! Do it TODAY!

PUKENUI, FAR NORTH, NEW ZEALAND -  IN WINTER

I TOOK PART IN A QUIZ AND WON A CONCESSION TICKET WORTH  $45.00.

(Five return trips to Pukenui or to Mangonui)

Today I went to PUKENUI.

I went to the PUKENUI SCHOOL and talked to the headmistress. There are 7o children she told me, but there is no BIS (Bible in Schools) at the moment. I remember going into the school in 1981 – 28 years ago – to teach the Bible. Every Wednesday we went to four schools:

Waiharara, Pukenui, Ngataki and Te Kao.

PUKENUI has also a police station. What a surprise to see the word police  written three times on the front of the station, in Maori, English of course and GERMAN. There must be a lot of Germans in  Pukenui in summer.

“All Kiwis to be rated for credit reliability”

I noticed that newspaper headline while walking through the town on Monday and was interested of course and wanted to find out more about it. – But eventually I forgot.

But what a surprise to fnd the article neatly cut out today (Tuesday) on our coffee table. Apparently somebody else was also very interested.

THE BIBLE, THE WORD OF THE LIVING GOD SAYS:

Romans 13:8

“Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt  to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law.”

THINK ABOUT IT!!
