Morgonkoll 12/1

rupebas morgonkoll den tolfte januari
I dagens morgonkoll, torsdag, kan vi läsa att Frälsningsarmén och Blå Band slår ihop sina påsar, i alla fall då det gäller soppåsar.
Mikael Karlendal fortsätter sin serie om Skrift och tradition.
Torsdag innebär också rubriker från den engelska sidan.

Frälsningsarmén och Blå Band slår sig ihop
dagensmedia.se - "Frälsningsarmén och Blå Band inleder ett samarbete. En gemensam soppkampanj ska öka försäljningen av soppor. Bakom kampanjen står SRC.
Samarbetet innebär att för varje portion soppa från Blå Band som säljs under kampanjperioden, så skänks en soppa till Frälsningsarméns soppkök

Skrift och tradition – 3
Mikael Karlendals blogg - "Den katolske bloggaren Bengt Malmgren skriver några intressanta ord på sin blogg, som jag tar mig friheten att citera:
    ”Vi katoliker har invändningar mot den ofta extrema fokuseringen på sola scriptura (endast Bibeln) som uppstått i den protestantiska kristenheten efter Luther där man inte velat inse eller förstå att tron förmedlas i ett sammanhang och att Bibeln är Kyrkans bok som hela tiden läses och tolkas i ett sammanhang, en tradition.  En tillspetsad bild är att katoliken har haft föreställningen att kyrkan hämtar sin lära dels ur Skriften dels ur traditionen, medan protestanten haft föreställningen att han varit helt oberoende av all tradition

The drill is called “Austere Challenge 12” and is designed to improve defense systems and cooperation between the U.S. and Israeli forces. It follows a 10-day Iranian naval exercise near the strategic Strait of Hormuz.

Video Looks at Church Planting in Muslim World
Charisma News - "This video is focusing on the Tama people of Chad. Green says, "They're doing church planting there among a people group of about 200,000 people. There is no church and no known believers there."
Chad isn't known for its stability. "Chad is considered one of the most unstable countries in the world, second only to Somalia. There was a civil war several years ago. It's stabilized somewhat, but there is a large number of refugees," says Green.
Pioneers church planters have a huge task ahead of them. "These people are exclusively Muslim," says Green. "That is their identity. It's very closely tied to their ethnic identity. And the possibility of changing religious identity is very foreign to them

The cost of freedom
Marie Willermark (TC Sweden) - "Ukrainian example of the Freedom Prize; reads Sweden’s Dagens Nyheter (Daily News) noting that Olexander Tymoshenko seeks political asylum in the Czech Republic. He is the husband of former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko (famous for her braids). Her circumstances are described as though, "living in a torture cell."

Why does this happen in a free Ukraine? One thing that struck me during the five years I lived there was the standard for right and wrong and also what constituted truth or falsehoods. My reasoning led me to believe that this approach was fostered or that it was an unplanned result of the Soviet state ideology. All goals were measurable and all necessary resources were allocated in order to reach the goals.

Prophetic Word for 2012: Revival Begins With You
Jennifer LeClaire in Prophetic insight - "While I was praying over 2012, I received impressions about many things—some warnings and some promises. But what burned most on my heart to share with the masses wasn’t a list of predictions or a prophetic directive. What burned most on my heart to share are four simple words: Revival begins with you.
We yearn to see signs, wonders and miracles manifest today as they did in the book of Acts, don’t we? But are we willing to pay the price the early church paid? Are we willing to die to self? Are we willing to relinquish control to the Holy Spirit so He can move like He wants to move? Are we willing to repent for the character flaws that hold us back? Are we willing to walk in love and unity with true believers who don’t believe exactly the same as we do? Are we willing to war against the spirit of compromise that is raging against the church in this age? Revival begins with you.
