One Heart

And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God. But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD. (Ezekiel 11:19-21)

The ingenuity of Technology

I went with my colleague up to PTA using a Tazz, the traffic was hectic during the time periods we used to travel. We had workshops that lasted for three days and every time i thought of the traffic my bones wanted to melt because of the traffic, PTA seemed to be in Mafikeng from JHB. However, yesterday i made a call to PTA over the telkom line. The person could hear me and i could hear them it was as if i was in two places at the same time, it was as if i was in PTA whiles in JHB. This is amazing, i mean just being in JHB i could talk with someone in PTA, i did not have to go through the traffic congestion, i could just be in JHB and still cause effect in PTA. I mean, think about it, when a person speaks to you and me we can hear them irrespective of all the other signals in the air(considering that a sound is a signal), our ears can filter out other things and hence allowing us to hear one another what a design (This was taken from Richard Feynman). I woke up this morning and my eyes could distinguish out of different spectrum of light what is what. I cannot find words to express this ingenuity, its just spectacularly amazing, its really still a wonder to me....

What’s In A Name

This has never crossed my mind as it does now, the name Jesus is a transliteration from a Greek word (Iesous) where else his original name was in Hebrew (Aramaic), this questions if the name Jesus has meaning.

"‘Iesous’ is a GREEK word and is NOT, and I say NOT of Hebrew origin. ‘Jehoshua’ is the correct translation from the Hebrew. So why was the SON OF GOD called ‘Jesus’ if his true name was ‘Jehoshua’(Yah’Shua)?" ref: http://www.gem-international.org/kingdomlife/noraname.htm

please check out the full version of this historical account that led to the development of the name Jesus, it is quiet clear throughout the Bible that names were important (Saul was changed to Paul, Abram to Abraham, etc) names had a meaning. Please check out this site:

Lets look at the beginning, what happened, lets return to the language of the holy scriptures so that we can relate and associate soundly with what the word of God is saying in today's generation, season and time.
