Välkommen till min blogg! Jag kommer att bevaka frågor som rör förföljda kristna i världen, nyheter från Belarus, Israelnyheter, kyrkliga frågor, politik, samhällsfrågor och teologi. Jag står på bibel- och bekännelsetrogen och evangelisk-luthersk grund och jag och min familj hör till Jakobstads svenska församling. Mellan varven kommer jag att presentera några personliga glimtar också, kring sådant som jag är intresserad av.

El Shaddai - the Almighty God
"Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do." 1 Tess. 5:11 (KJV)
"The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen." 2 Cor. 13:14 (KJV)
"And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect." Gen. 17:1 (KJV)
"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one.[a] 5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. 8 Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 9 Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates." Deut. 6:4-9 (KJV)
EL - Might, strenght, power
El Shaddai is used almost exclusively in reference to the three great patriarchs: Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and (according to Exodus 6:2-3) was the primary name by which God was known to the founders of Israel (the Name YHVH given to Moses suggests God's absolute self-sufficiency). The word "Shaddai" (by itself) was used later by the prophets (e.g., Num. 24:4; Isa. 13:6, Ezek. 1:24) as well as in the books of Job, Ruth, and in the Psalms. In modern Judaism, Shaddai is also thought to be an acronym for the phrase Shomer daltot Yisrael - "Guardian of the doors of Israel".

El Elyon.
The Most High God.
This title stresses God's strength, sovereignty, and supremacy (Gen. 14:20; Ps. 9:2).
Sometimes referred to in Scripture simply as Elyon (e.g., Num. 24:16).
El Roi.
God Who Sees me; Hagar's name for God when He saw her affliction (Gen. 16:13).
