That they may be one

These past days I keep being drawn back to John 17, especially verses 11 and 21. 

Could it be that Jesus is delaying the Rapture to give us maximum time to "be one as we are one"?? 


It's the only time in Scripture when we get to see the detailed content of Jesus' prayer and it's about unity. 

It makes me think of 1 John 4:12 - "No-one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us."

In other words, the love (unity) of the Body of Christ is meant as a way of making the invisible God visible on earth. 

We are meant to reflect Jesus, the image of the invisible God (Colossians 1:15); just as He reflects the glory of the Father (Hebrews 1:3).

Qu'ils puissent en être un

Ces derniers jours, je n'arrête pas d'être attiré par Jean 17, en particulier les versets 11 et 21.

Serait-il possible que Jésus retarde l'enlèvement pour nous donner un maximum de temps pour "être un comme nous sommes un" ??



C'est le seul moment dans les Écritures où nous pouvons voir le contenu détaillé de la prière de Jésus et il s'agit d'unité.

Cela me fait penser à 1 Jean 4:12 - "Personne n'a jamais vu Dieu ; mais si nous nous aimons les uns les autres, Dieu vit en nous et son amour est rendu complet en nous."

En d'autres termes, l'amour (unité) du Corps du Christ est conçu comme un moyen de rendre le Dieu invisible visible sur terre.

Nous sommes censés refléter Jésus, l'image du Dieu invisible (Colossiens 1:15) ; tout comme Il reflète la gloire du Père (Hébreux 1:3).

Che possano essere uno

In questi ultimi giorni continuo ad essere richiamato a Giovanni 17, specialmente ai versetti 11 e 21.

Potrebbe essere che Gesù stia ritardando il Rapimento per darci il massimo tempo per "essere uno come siamo uno"??



È l'unico momento nella Scrittura in cui possiamo vedere il contenuto dettagliato della preghiera di Gesù e si tratta di unità.

Mi fa pensare a 1 Giovanni 4:12 - "Nessuno ha mai visto Dio; ma se ci amiamo gli uni gli altri, Dio vive in noi e il suo amore è reso completo in noi".

In altre parole, l'amore (unità) del Corpo di Cristo è inteso come un modo per rendere visibile il Dio invisibile sulla terra.

Siamo destinati a riflettere Gesù, l'immagine del Dio invisibile (Colosseni 1:15); proprio come Lui riflette la gloria del Padre (Ebrei 1:3).

Que eles podem ser um

Nos últimos dias, continuo sendo atraído de volta a João 17, especialmente os versículos 11 e 21.

Será que Jesus está atrasando o Arrebatamento para nos dar o máximo de tempo para "sermos um como somos um"??



É o único momento nas Escrituras em que podemos ver o conteúdo detalhado da oração de Jesus e é sobre unidade.

Isso me faz pensar em 1 João 4:12 - "Ninguém jamais viu Deus; mas se amamos uns aos outros, Deus vive em nós e seu amor se torna completo em nós."

Em outras palavras, o amor (unidade) do Corpo de Cristo é destinado a ser uma maneira de tornar o Deus invisível visível na terra.

Estamos destinados a refletir Jesus, a imagem do Deus invisível (Colossenses 1:15); assim como Ele reflete a glória do Pai (Hebreus 1:3).

What are the signs of the End Times?

EN  English ( FR IT PT SP ) What are the signs of the End Times? In Matthew 24:3 the disciples ask Jesus to tell them “what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” The phrase “the end of the age” seems to refer to the coming of Christ with His church at the end of the period of tribulation. Many of us expect that, before the tribulation starts, Christ will return for His church in what is called “ the rapture ”.   *ALERT* The rapture is imminent   Remember, when Jesus says, “No one knows about the day or the hour…” He is referring to his coming at the end of the age, not to the rapture. ( More ) The rapture can take place at any time (so  we need to be ready now ): none of the following signs is necessary to be completed before the rapture can take place; but the presence of the signs does indicate that the time for the rapture is getting closer. And, individually, none of us is guaranteed tomorrow; so  we should be ready...

CRM Problems

I dug out some depressing numbers from the CRM world: only 30% of companies with a CRM implementation feel that they've had a positive return on their investment. Mostly, the issues are not technical ones (it's not that hard to get the software installed and some superficial training completed). But there are some similarities with many IT projects: Lack of agreed goals and business case "Fail to plan, plan to fail" is the old saw that is daily proved true. I've seen clients invest in new hardware and software for the wrong reasons. (Last year, one IT department wanted to buy new software to secure training for the existing team in an attempt to secure their jobs and enhance their CVs...) Resist the temptation to launch into a new technology implementation without knowing realistically what you expect to get out of it. Difficulties with customization and integration with existing systems "No man is an island..." proves even more true of IT systems. V...

Experiencing a personality profile

-
Image
They labelled me a “Directing Motivator” - Apparently that means I’m Results focused, decisive and assertive; combined with drive, enthusiasm and positive thinking. We had about forty of us (Executive Leadership Team, regional directors, their reports and some “heads of” from business central operations) go through the Insights Discovery process. It’s probably the most accurate personality profiling tool I’ve yet experienced: almost uncannily accurate, not just for me but most of the others. Mike is a good people manager because he has the ability to see what may lie ahead and then communicate his vision to others. His natural intuition, fed by a drive to discover, brings with it the readiness to work long and hard in the pursuit of an ongoing dream.  Mike is seen by others as pragmatic, dependable and able to get things done.  He exhibits an infectious enthusiasm for living.  Curious and alert, Mike  prefers to understand rather than judge.  He is ...
