Dede Robertson Gone Home!

Mother, Wife, Author, Friend Adelia Robertson 94 Passed Away April 19th, 2022

Scripture:
  • Matthew 25:23 "Well done good and faithful servant!"
A few minutes ago, I was led to scroll through the news feed from Microsoft - this is not something I do very often and I wondered why. After scrolling down several pages. I saw this article and thought "Oh, My!" I knew that Pat Robertson's wife was of advanced years, but never in a million years would I have ever guessed that she was 94. Adelia"Dede" Robertson has gone home to be with the LORD.

Interesting Resources About Patrick Evangelist to Ireland

March 17 Irish Around the World Celebrate Patrick Who Brought Christ to Ireland

Scripture:
  • Romans 10:15 How shall they proclaim the Good News unless they are sent? For it is written," Beautiful are the feet that proclaim Good News,"
Making plans to celebrate March 17th? Looking for some ways to truly honour the life of this ancient anti-slavery advocate? What anti-slavery? Yes, perhaps you know part of his story, and some people might do a few crafts about snakes or shamrocks. However, many of our minds have seemingly been blocked about how this man spent part of his life as a slave, escaped through a God-led 200-mile walk, then returned to Ireland to lead people to Christ and even was almost excommunicated for not collecting tithes.

Each year thousands of people celebrate St. Patrick's Day in ways that in no way reflect the life of St. Patrick and what he stood for. Hopefully, this post may provide some useful resources to help shed a little more light on the life of St. Patrick and give you some ideas to mark this manmade Holy Day more appropriately.

Discovering Quakers - Christian Church History

Quakers - Peace Seekers Who Founded Pennsylvania

Scriptures:
  • You shall not seek revenge or bear a grudge against another Israelite but you shall love your neighbour as yourself. I am the LORD.  Leviticus 19:18
  • A new command I give you. Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. John 13:34

Are you curious about how a group of Christians came to be called Quakers? The free full-length movie embedded in this post from Vision TV seeks to explain the origins of The Society of Friends - this group of Christians who seek to live peacefully and lovingly with all their neighbours as Christ taught.

Lessons From the Welsh Christianity Revival of 1904

What Can Past Revivals Teach Us? 

Between 1904 and 1905 a great desire to grow closer to God ran through Wales. This move of the spirit was definitely extraordinary and revolutionary!  Whole towns were shut down for weeks as people went to services to cry out to God and seek His face. This was not a revolution of the weak! Pubs, bars and pool halls emptied! Football (soccer) matches were even called off due to this reign as the players did not show up for games!
I must admit, I am quite ignorant of church history, and I was thrilled to find this piece of a peaceful movement of the Great Mystery put across my path yesterday.

People Miraculously Teleported aka Translated

Have You Been Supernaturally Transported? 

Scripture:
  • Psalm 115:3 - Our God is in heaven. He does as He pleases.
Many people have been supernaturally transported by God through history. This spiritual phenomenon is sometimes called bilocation or translation. In the past, this was not seen as much of a mystery, but today if you say you have been used by God in this way, people either don't want to believe you or say you are "cray". 
Several years ago, I  saw a gentleman on a Sid Roth show who shared how he had been transported, or as some say translated in a very unusual way to a country very far away. Who was that man? Dr. James Maloney!

Now before you say he must be full of baloney, he is not the only one to have travelled fairly recently, you see, it also happened to many people! 
Have you been Supernaturally Translated or Transported too?  This post shares supernatural transportation stories from the Bible and of other people who have dared to tell their stories and give God the glory.
