75 YEARS MARKING THE
LIBERATION OF AUSCHWITZ
It is almost beyond belief when we read about the horrors of the Holocaust and the suffering of men, women and children in concentration camps. No place is a more powerful reminder of their suffering that Auschwitz, Poland - where over 2 million Jews were put to death. The gas chambers, medical experiments, mass graves, smoke from the crematoriums, all chilling reminders of the evil and hatred that fell mercilessly upon these poor people. We will never know the names of many of the prisoners, but one man is remembered, not just for having his life taken but voluntarily giving it for another...
It was the cruel custom that if a prisoner escaped from Auschwitz, the Nazis selected 10 others to be killed by starvation as punishment for the escape. On one occasion after an escape, one of the 10 men selected called Franciszek gajowniczek began to cry out "My wife! My children! I will never see then again!" Another prisoner stepped forward called 'Father Kolbe' - an old man. He asked to die in his place. His request was granted and Franciszek was spared.
As the ten men were led away to 'death block' - building 11, still visible today, Father Kolbe supported a fellow prisoner who could hardly walk. No one would live, and witnesses tell us Father Kolbe was the last to starve to death!
As we remember the liberation of that death camp 75 years ago this year I remember standing in Auschwitz 15 years ago and hearing this touching story. It reminded me of one who took my place. He was a Jew but he was the Son of God. Romans 5v7-8 says "scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." What love Jesus Christ showed to us that He was willing to take our punishment for sins when he died upon the cross so that we might be liberated from our sins.
We remember today all who lost their lives in the awful holocaust but how thankful we should be that God has an answer to all the evil of the human heart - the perfect substitute - Jesus Christ.

ISAIAH Ch 1:18
"Where are you going?”
ON THE ROMANS ROAD
The Romans Road is five verses from the Bible that tell us how a person can be right with God. God’s verdict on the world is “guilty” because all have sinned against Him. Everyone is legally guilty before God not because they feel guilty but because God declares them so. The evidence is undeniable - we have all sinned. Lies, deceit, envy, pornography, adultery, pride, theft, greed and the list goes on. But the worst sin is to neglect the matter of salvation whereby the guilt can be removed. The outcome of sin unforgiven is death and Hell because God is holy and just and cannot ignore even one sin. But God directed His loved towards us and provided the free gift of eternal life through the death of Jesus Christ. Christ died for our sins. No one will ever be in Heaven through their own works, religion or baptism. Eternal life is God’s gift. Are you guilty or saved? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. If you die without Jesus Christ you will stand before the judge of all the earth - guilty and with no chance of appeal. Repent now and believe the Gospel. The Romans Road is the road to Heaven. Get located!
BIBLE VERSE FOR THIS WEEK
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men,
the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all.
"Sight is only one form of evidence.
We all believe in things we have not seen:
love, atoms, gravity, the earths molten core.
We do not believe these things without evidence though.”
Professor John Lennox

WHAT IS TRUTH?
It’s amazing how vital truth becomes when a life depends on it. Accident investigators leave no stone unturned to ensure they find out the truth. Truth saves lives. But what is truth? In AD33 A Roman Governor called Pilate asked a man this question as he sentenced Him to death by crucifixion. That man was called Jesus of Nazareth.
Most people view truth in two ways: 1) Absolute truth is discovered not invented. It is absolutely true that 2+2 = 4 and that there are no round squares. 2) Relative truth claims that truth is not fixed because it is linked to people and perceptions that always change. Language changes and therefore so does truth. If I say it is true for me then it is true. The problem with the claim of relative truth is that it claims to be absolutely true! If the truth about what truth is isn't true then there is no such thing as truth at all. Relative truth statements don’t answer the big questions eg. the age of our universe. And if truth is relative lies are relative. Can we really trust anyone? Astronomers constantly move the goal posts as to the age of the earth. The absolute truth is they don’t know! The best they can do is give an estimate or on Dawkins ad ‘probably’ but theory and probably are NOT absolute truths and if followed flying a plane may be fatal. Yet millions are content to take the greatest journey of all beyond death with no absolute truth. Real science is based on absolute truth eg. Water boils at 100˚C. This is true scientific evidence. We cannot ‘truly’ claim that science proves there is no God but we can say that science is part of the evidence there is God. The next witness to God's existence is the scriptures. The claims of the Bible to be true rest on clear evidence that is absolutely true and a man who claimed to be ‘the truth.’ - Jesus’ claims to be God were clearly demonstrated in his miraculous power over creation and ultimately His power over death rising from the dead. Seen by hundreds and recorded by four key witnesses the bible is also able to foretell history in advance. The prophecy of 4 world empires in exact succession. The Babylonian, Persian, Greek, and Roman empires all followed as the bible said they would and proved God's word 100% accurate so that even the British Museum had to agree the bible got it absolutely right! Sadly many don’t want to acknowledge the truth because it demands that I bow to the word of God and to His will. Pilate sold the truth for popularity. What will you trade the truth for? JESUS CHRIST SAID... “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John’s Gospel Ch 14:6 |
IN OXFORD
For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."
Denn also hat Gott die Welt geliebt, daß er seinen eingeboren Sohn gab, auf daß alle, die an ihn glauben, nicht verloren werden, sondern das ewige Leben haben. 
Tak bowiem Bóg umiłował świat, że Syna swego Jednorodzonego dał, aby każdy, kto w Niego wierzy, nie zginął, ale miał życie wieczne.
Fiindcà atât de mult a iubit Dumnezeu lumea, cà a dat pe singurul Lui Fiu, pentru cà oricine crede în El, sà nu piarà, ci sà aibà viatza vecinicà.
Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, que dió a su Hijo unigénito, para que todo aquel que cree en él, no perezca, mas tenga vida eterna.
