WHAT IS OUR SOURCE OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT JESUS?
Once upon a time, as all good fairy tales begin, there was a beautiful girl named Cenderilla. She lost her family and was taken in by an evil stopmether who treated her very badly, as the lowest sarvent in the hosehould. She was particularly misreated by her two stop-sestirs.One day the local Prenci put on a ball for his sebjucts. The two stop-sestirs were invited but not poor sarvent Cenderilla. She cried and cried and cried, for her greatest desire was to meet the hondsame Prenci.
Suddenly, her Fayri Gedmothor appeared and arranged for her to go to the Prenci's Ball in a Pimpkun Coach drawn by 6 white hersos. However, she had to be home by midnight or the coach would again become a pimpkun and her disguise would be blown.
Cenderilla was the 'belle of the ball', dancing with the Prenci all night. Suddenly, she looked at her Giccu watch and saw that it was approaching the biwetching hour when she had to leave.
Racing out of the ballroom, she leapt on her Pimpkun Coach, guddyipped the hersos and raced home. In her rush one of her pitete gliss slappers fell off and was found by the grieving Prenci who had watched her disappear into the darkness of the midnight hour.
The next day the Prenci went round the whole town, searching for the beautiful demsal who could fit the pitete gliss slapper. Cenderilla's was the last house left in the town. The two evil stop-sestirs tried on the pitete gliss slapper but it was too big. The Prenci was davestetad! "Surely there must be someone else in the house?", he eskad.
Cenderilla heard her Prenci's cry and shyly came out of the sarvents quertars and held out her foot which perfectly fettid the pitete gliss slapper! The Pranci and Cenderilla married and levid hippaly ever eftar, for the Prenci's widdeng present to His bredi was ommirtal lefi. Even tadoy they still levi hippaly in their ommirtal hemo where they connat be seen but have a frylee available collphene nembur with which to talk to their peeplo.
Unfortunately Cinderella and her Prince have a problem! For they have this huge cellphone tower set up but very few callers. In fact, they feel lonely - even rejected - in their bad moments!
You see, there have been countless books written about their exploits, even colleges and schools set up to dissect their time on earth, to see what we can learn to apply to our lives today. The best book however, written by close friends of the Royal Couple, approved and even inspired by them, is regarded as the 'first and last word' on the subject of their exploits. But it is not enough. Experts have to dissect and interpret it for the benefit of would be followers. They preach about it to all who will listen. In fact, now you cannot be regarded as genuine follower unless you have a college degree on the subject!
Yet, the direct cellphone lines to the source of knowledge, the Royal Couple themselves, are being used with less and less frequency. It seems that the more books that are written, the more colleges set up, the more preaching and teaching done, the less the need to go the source, the Royal Couple themselves, for the latest revelation and understanding of their inspired book that the friends of the Royal Couple wrote.
My friend, it takes time, and effort, to get to know someone, anyone, intimately. I have been married for 40 years and still am learning new things about my wife! Daily, often hourly, communication is necessary to find out what she is up to and how it affects me. While I can get messages about and from my wife from others, it is only by talking with her directly that I will get the full story, with all the nuances of what she is thinking and feeling.
It is no different with Jesus. I can read the Bible, which is great. I can read about Him, which is good. I can receive teaching about Him, which is good. I can receive a message from Him through a prophet, which is wonderful. I can hear a sermon about Him, which is good. But the only way I am going to develop a deep understanding and relationship with Him is by spending time with Him, sharing my thoughts, but more importantly, listening out for Him to reveal Himself intimately to me.
7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. (Matthew 7;7-8)
These words of Jesus were written specifically to the Christians of our age!
19 Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest, and repent. 20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me. (Revelation 3:19-20)
Amen.

FROM THE WORD
Ask, Seek, Knock"“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. “Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." (Matthew 7:7-12)
To the Church in Laodicea
"“To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest, and repent. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Fa ther on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.â€" (Revelation 3:14-22)
Peter’s Vision
"About noon the following day as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray. He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance. He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners. It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as reptiles of the earth and birds of the air. Then a voice told him, “Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.†“Surely not, Lord!†Peter replied. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.†The voice spoke to him a second time, “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.†This happened three times, and immediately the sheet was taken back to heaven. While Peter was wondering about the meaning of the vision, the men sent by Cornelius found out where Simon’s house was and stopped at the gate. They called out, asking if Simon who was known as Peter was staying there. While Peter was still thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Simon, three men are looking for you. So get up and go downstairs. Do not hesitate to go with them, for I have sent them.†Peter went down and said to the men, “I’m the one you’re looking for. Why have you come?†The men replied, “We have come from Cornelius the centurion. He is a righteous and God-fearing man, who is respected by all the Jewish people. A holy angel told him to have you come to his house so that he could hear what you have to say.†Then Peter invited the men into the house to be his guests." (Acts 10:9-23)

CRANWELLS CARTOONS
Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the Lord’s disciples. He went to the high priest 2 and asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any there who belonged to the Way, whether men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem. 3 As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. 4 He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?†5 “Who are you, Lord?†Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,†he replied. 6 “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.†7 The men traveling with Saul stood there speechless; they heard the sound but did not see anyone. 8 Saul got up from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could see nothing. So they led him by the hand into Damascus. 9 For three days he was blind, and did not eat or drink anything. (Acts 9:1-9)TO READ THIS CARTOON AND SEE

Why is Sunday school on Sunday? I thought it was supposed to be our day of rest. Tom
Please send me a pony. I never asked for anything before. You can look it up. Bruce.

375. THE MICROSCHLOCK BIBLE
(A parody. Adapted by Bellgamin)
Customer: Oh salesclerk, could you help me please?
Clerk: Hi, my name is Velma and I'll be your Support. What's your problem?
Customer: The book of Psalms is missing from this Bible I bought here yesterday.
Clerk: Try looking again. Maybe Psalms will be there this time.
Customer: No, it's still missing.
Clerk: Maybe it's the way you're using the Bible. Try opening it from the back instead of the front.
Customer: Even when I open it from the back, Psalms is still missing.
Clerk: Maybe the Bible is incompatible with your eyeglasses. Did you wear READING glasses while you used this Bible?
Customer: I don't need glasses. My eyesight is perfect.
Clerk: Hmmm...if you say so. Well, it might be a configuration problem. How was the Bible set up?
Customer: They just handed it to me in a cardboard box. What has that got to do with the fact that Psalms is missing?
Clerk: Can you remember everything you did before you noticed the book of Psalms was missing?
Customer: I took it out of the box, of course!
Clerk: Oh oh! That could be the cause of your problem. Anyway, that Bible is rather out-dated technology. Have you considered upgrading to our most recent version?
Customer: You folks have updated the Bible?
Clerk: Certainly. We just issued Bible-98, version 2.1. It comes with 100 free hours on the internet, plus one full year of Tech Support.
Customer: Okay, bring me Bible-98. I'm running late now.
Clerk: Here you are sir. Bible-98, the latest thing.
Clerk starts to leave.
Customer: (Examines Bible) Hey, wait a minute! What are all these extra pages glued in between the Bible pages? I didn't ask for those.
Clerk: No problem sir. They can be removed for a slight extra cost. Of course, doing so will void the warranty and your Bible might not function properly without them.
(And so it goes. Er..... did anybody say McWindoze?)

FACTS FOR FUN
LAST WEEKS QUESTION: What infamous Countess was a mass murderer?ANSWER: Countess Elizabeth Bathory of Hungary, known as the ‘Blood Countess’, is reputed to have killed hundreds of young girls as a sadistic pastime. Elizabeth was able to kill the girls, mostly peasants from the surrounding countryside with impunity for many years, because of her noble station. Legends say she believed that by bathing in her victim's blood, she would stay young forever. There is, however, no real evidence that she did this. Eventually, her crimes reached such a magnitude that her "cousin" Count Thurzo, ordered by the King and Church officials to act, saw to it that Elizabeth was walled into her castle to live out her final days in isolation. Her accomplices, mostly servants, were executed. Some scholars speculate that Bram Stoker, author of Dracula, based his legendary vampire in part on Elizabeth (as well as another sadistic killer - Vlad the Impaler). (An actual ‘bloodbath’!)
THIS WEEK'S QUESTION: Is it true that the yo-yo was based on a weapon?
Answer Next Week.
34. THAT'S REAL ACCELERATION
Comets speed up as they approach the Sun – sometimes reaching speeds of over a million miles per hour. Far away from the Sun, their speeds drop, perhaps down to as little as 700 miles per hour. (Do they have heavenly ‘drag races’ with each other?)
35. FISHY?
The word salmonella, referring to bacteria that enter a person's digestive tract in contaminated food and causing food poisoning, has nothing to do with fish. Rather, it was named after U.S. pathologist Daniel E. Salmon. (He may not wish to be remembered for this!)
36. BEES BEWARE
'Cerophacy’ is the eating of wax. Some birds, such as the honey guides of Africa and Asia, eat bees wax persistently. (Maybe wax lyrical in song after a feed?)

158. HAPPIEST MAN
The newly wed wife said to her husband when he returned from work: "I have great news for you. Pretty soon we're going to be three in this house instead of two."
The husband started glowing with happiness and kissing his wife said: "Oh darling, I'm the happiest man in the world."
But then she said: "I'm glad that you feel this way because tomorrow morning my mother moves in with us."
159. WHO?
For months he had been her devoted admirer. Now, at long last, he had collected up sufficient courage to ask her the most momentous of all questions.
"There are quite a lot of advantages to being a bachelor," he began, "but there comes a time when one longs for the companionship of another being... a being who will regard one as perfect, as an idol; whom one can treat as one's absolute property; who will be kind and faithful when times are hard; who will share one's joys and sorrows..."
To his delight he saw a sympathetic gleam in her eyes. Then she nodded in agreement. She replied," I think its a great idea... I would love to help you choose your pet dog."
160. SOMETHING ELECTRIC?
A husband and wife were shopping when the wife said, "Darling, it's my mother's birthday tomorrow. What shall we buy for her? She would like something electric."
The husband replied, "How about a chair?!?"

Ruling: UK Doctors Can Pray With Patients as Long as It's "Tactful"
Teresa Neumann (August 3, 2011)The news is welcome by one of the country's leading doctors.
(United Kingdom)—In May of this year, Dr. Richard Scott made headlines when he rejected an official warning from the General Medical Council (GMC) for discussing his faith with a patient. Now, as reported by Inspire Magazine, new guidance for doctors who want to pray for patients has been released by the Medical Defense Union (MDU)—with backing from the General Medical Council and one of the country's leading doctors.
Getty/CNN"Nothing in the GMC's guidance Personal Beliefs and Medical Practice precludes doctors from praying with their patients. …It must be tactful, so that the patient can decline without embarrassment—because, while some may welcome the suggestion, others may regard it as inappropriate." said Jane O'Brien, Assistant Director for Standards and Fitness to Practice. (Photo: Getty/CNN)
One of the U.K.'s leading doctors, Dr. Clare Gerada, the Chair of the Royal College of General Practitioners, tweeted, "Good that sense is prevailing at last."
Said Peter Saunders, Chief Executive of the Christian Medical Fellowship: "We welcome this clear endorsement by the GMC and MDU of 'tactful' offers of prayer by GPs coming, as it does, shortly after the GMC's recent confirmation of the appropriateness of sensitive faith discussions with patients. Our concern is that doctors will feel free to practice whole person medicine and not shrink back from discussing faith issues sensitively when and if it is appropriate to do. Addressing spiritual issues when they impact on a patient's health is part of good patient-centered care."

WAXING LYRICAL
All too often we don't consider the long term consequences of our choices in life.CHOICES
Life comes, life goes,
Brings peaks, and lows.
We surely reap what we sow!
Our tide does ebb and flow.
When I look back on what I've done,
I see the storms, but also the sun.
For I have done good, at times been bad,
Sometimes am happy, sometimes am sad.
No, the time past I cannot now change,
But my future, yes, I may rearrange.
What will I do? Where will I go?
I may think, but God does know.
Will I put my life in His hand?
On His Rock, my days to stand.
Or will I build my house on the sand?
And His will for me, not understand.
Today I am charged to live the call.
Am I prepared to give Him my all?
Or will I continue in my earthly ways?
Seeking my own pleasure, all my days.
My time may well be short, it may be long,
Before joining Jesus, forever to belong,
What will He say that glorious day I see His face?
Knowing I've been saved, by His amazing grace.
Will it be, "Well done good and faithful servant",
Or will I seek my actions to quickly recant!
For on that day, I will surely see
The result of choices, made by me.
The past I can't change, the future neither,
But by my today's actions I can either
Build His kingdom here upon the earth,
Or make my own! My decision, my worth.
What will I do? Where will I go?
Will it be wheat or tares I sow?
Today I now have the choices to make,
Of what direction my life will take.
You too, my friend, today are in the very same boat,
To be a sheep of the Shepherd, or to be the goat.
What will be your choice of 'the way' to live?
All your life to Jesus, will you now give?
One day we will meet together with Jesus in heaven,
Having lived lives of fruitfulness, or of leaven.
The choices we now make on earth today,
Do determine what role we will play.
Let's now look towards
Our heavenly rewards.
The choice is mine,
The choice is thine!

Have taken life easier this week! Yes, I can - sometimes! LOL!The next big event taking place in New Zealand is the Rugby World Cup, which is meant to be the 3rd biggest sporting event in the world, after the Olympic Games and the Soccer World Cup. It starts on 9 September with a game between the NZ All Blacks and the small Pacific Island nation of Tonga. Huge amounts of money have been spent on the preparation of facilities. The remodeled main stadium in Auckland was 'tested' on Saturday night with a game between the All Blacks and the Australian Wallabies. The All Blacks won comfortably, which we in New Zealand hope is a portent of things to come. Although we regularly are the top ranked team in the world, we have only won one of the six World Cup Tournaments that have been played.
On Friday night Kathy and I were given tickets to go and see our local provincial team, Hawkes Bay, play and comprehensively beat the much larger province of Wellington. It warmed the heart, which was most necessary as the night was very cold!
If only we could develop as much enthusiasm for Jesus as we do for sport worldwide! Sadly, sport has effectively become the world's new religion!
While we enjoy sport, we need to keep it in perspective. For in the end game of life, there is only one winner, Jesus! May we not forget!
PHOTO: The New Zealand All Blacks performing our indigenous Maori War Dance, called the 'Haka', before a match. Fearsome!
Until next week.......
MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOU BLESS GOD.
His servant and yours
