THE BELIEVERS SHARE THEIR POSSESSIONS. /. DIE GELOWIGES VERDEEL HULLE BESITTINGE.

Wednesday 29 June 2016

WORD OF THE DAY:

(Ephesians 2:13,14)

13. But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were (so) far away, through (by) the blood of Christ have been brought near. 

14. For He is (Himself) our peace (our bond of unity and harmony). He Has made us both (Jew and Gentile) one (body), and Has broken down (destroyed, abolished) the hostile dividing wall between us.  

MESSAGE OF THE DAY:

THE BELIEVERS SHARE THEIR POSSESSIONS:

(Acts 4:32-37)

32. Now the company of believers was of one heart and soul, and not one of them claimed that anything which he possessed was (exclusively) his own, but everything they had was in common and for the use of all. 

33. And with great strength and ability and power, the apostles delivered their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace (loving-kindness and favour and goodwill) rested richly upon them all. 

34. Nor was there a destitute or needy person among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses, proceeded to sell them, and one by one they brought (gave back) the amount received from the sales, 

35. And laid it at the feet of the apostles (special messengers). Then distribution was made according as anyone had need. 

36. Now Joseph, a Levite and native of Cyprus, who was surnamed Barnabas by the apostles, which interpreted means Son of encouragement;

37. Sold a field which belonged to him, and brought the sum of money and laid it at the feet of the apostles.

WOORD VAN DIE DAG:

(Efesiërs 2:13,14)

13. Maar nou in Christus Jesus het julle wat vroeër ver was, naby gekom deur dis bloed van Christus. 

14. Want Hy is ons vrede. Hy wat albei een gemaak, en die middelmuur van skeiding afgebreek het. 

BOODSKAP VAN DIE DAG:

DIE GELOWIGES VERDEEL AL HULLE BESITTINGE:

(Handelinge 4:32-37)

32. En die menigte van die wat gelowig geword het, was een van hart en siel, en nie een het gesê dat iets van sy besittings sy eie was nie, maar hulle het alles in gemeenskap gehad.  

33. En met groot krag het die apostels getuienis gegee van die opstanding van die Here Jesus, en groot genade was oor hulle almal.  

34. Want niemand onder hulle was behoeftig nie; want almal wat besitters van gronde of huise was, het dit verkoop en die prys van wat verkoop is, gebring en aan die voete van die apostels neergelê. 

35. En aan elkeen is uitgedeel volgens wat hy nodig gehad het. 

36. En Joses wie se bynaam onder die apostels Bárnabas was - wat as dit vertaal word, beteken seun van vertroosting - 'n Leviet, van geboorte uit Ciprus, 

37. Het 'n stuk grond gehad en dit verkoop en die geld gebring, en aan die voete van die apostels neergelê. 

(God willing and by His marvellous grace and mercy I will share the Word with you, as often as I possibly can.         /

As dit die wil van God is en deur Sy wonderbare genade en barmhartigheid sal ek die Woord met u deel, so dikwels as wat ek moontlik kan.)
