‘Take time to be holy, speak oft with thy Lord…’

We have probably all heard about the driver asking for directions, and being told: ‘If I were you, I wouldn’t start from here’!

As the people of God, we are called to a life of holiness. But where do we start? What is the first step? It’s vitally important to get this right if we want to avoid detours and pitfalls on our journey. In this article I maintain that the starting point in our life of holiness is what we know. Yes, there’s still plenty for us to do, but that doesn’t come first. We start with what God wants us to know.

The term ‘Allah’

Dear Sir,

In his February editorial JEB includes Allah as one of the ‘gods’ whom ‘the man of lawlessness’ will oppose. But it should be noted that Allah is the term used for God in the Arabic Bible. Our argument is not with the term some people use to describe their supreme deity. But our argument is with the nature they attribute to him.

Dear Sir,

My wife and I recently attended the funeral of an aunt who had been living alone, was blind, and who did not get many visitors.
