A Visual Representation of John 3:16 on things at the Café Press site.

Image
  I have designed a visual representation of John 3:16 . I uploaded the design to my Café Press account . I have put it on some things and plan to put it on more things.  John 3:16 - Café Press         This is the visual representation of the first part of John 3:16 .            The outer part is God. God is a spirit. Since we don't know what God looks like, I used an abstract design for Him.          The next level is love. It is represented by a heart; a traditional symbol of love.           The next level is the world. It is represented by the globe; at least part of it. It shows the whole world since God's love covers the whole world.           The next level is Jesus the Christ. I used a figure of a person in a stylized form of clothing common back then (at least what I think it was).           The next and last level is the cross. It represents the extent of God's love and the sacrifice of what Jesus the Christ did. The cross - in my opinion - has gone from represent

The Double Clasp Plus

Image
  This is copied from the bulletin of Calvary Baptist Church  (a King James Only church) at 472 Ocean Road in Portsmouth NH  03801. The bulletin is dated 05/12/2024. The Double Clasp          "...neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand, and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand."              ( John 10:28-29 ). The Savior's hand - how close to its hold, That none can loosen, none can break, No powers of heaven or earth or hell That loving clasp can ever shake. And over Jesus' wounded hand The Father's hand of strength is laid. Omnipotent to save and keep; Thus is our surety surer made. So, one beneath and one above, The Father's and Son their hands unite. How safe, how safe the ransomed are Within that clasp of tender might! by Annie Johnson Flint

Jesus the Christ Inspired Banknotes?

Image
          I found these Jesus inspired banknotes on eBay. They were sold / put up for auction by Banknotes Stamps Coins .           I think they are very well done. They look and feel like real banknotes. I think they are very imaginative.           I like how they have scripture and information on the back of them. One has scripture from the Holy Bible.           While I doubt Heaven will have money or banknotes, I think this would be what they might look like if they did (or something close to it).           I have two sets of them since I think it was cool to get them. I think they still have more - at the link above.          I have found others (search results using Duck Duck Go using 'Jesus banknotes') but none as nice looking as the above.

Hell ; Don't Go There - at my Café Press Online Store

Image
          The basis for this goes back when I would tease my siblings. I would sometimes get a 'don't go there' as in don't tell the joke or tease me. I would replay with "I don't get to go anywhere".           Of all the places that one should not go is hell; especially the way the Holy Bible tells of it (where the worm dies not and the flames are eternal / burn eternally [not the 'party place' that some would like to think]).           This is my simple design that combines the image of hell - a burning place of punishment - with my 'don't go there' idea. I think it could be used as a way to witness to people or express ones opinion  and reveal what the Holy Bible reveals of hell (I will post what the Holy Bible reveals of hell in a future blog).  Hell, Don't Go There - at TomLeeM at Café Press . It is available on various items. Café Press does the work and I get a little bit of the profit for my design.

God Bruised Jesus Because He Loved You

Image
  This is copied from the bulletin of Calvary Baptist Church of Portsmouth NH . The date of the bulletin is 05/05/2024. God Bruised Jesus Because He Loved You         "Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him; He hath put Him to grief: when thou shalt make His soul and offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand." ( Isaiah 53:10 ).         The suffering Lamb of God! Oh, what an incentive to labor for souls. What an incentive to seek the lost in all the earth. What an incentive to activity, to be "... steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord ..." ( 1 Corinthians 15:58 ). It is only by winning soul that we can reward Jesus for His sufferings; only by seeking the lost in all the earth can we satisfy Him for the travail of soul, which He bore for us upon the cross of Calvary.         Nothing but souls, SOULS will ever compensate Him for those years of suffering which culmi

The Rainbow and God's Promise

Image
  The Rainbow and God's Promise at Café Press The rainbow (or bow as is stated in the Bible) is God's promise to never to destroy the earth by flood. The above shows the scripture where this is found; Genesis 9:13 . " I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. " It is unfortunate that the rainbow has a different meaning now but it was first used by God to symbolize His promise never to flood the earth again.  I created the above design as a way to show the promise and the Bible verse that it is in. I made it curved since rainbows are curved and not really straight (like in some uses). I thought I would have it on things that combine the rainbow and the verse. I put them on things; things that that one can get at my Café Press page (link above).  It is a simple design. I created with the Paint program in Microsoft Windows.  The site is not perfect. I am still working on it.

The Lord's Presence
