Good Morning,  Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God. But encourage one another day after day as long as it is called today, so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. Hebrews 3.12-13. For it is appointed for man once to die, THEN COMES THE JUDGEMENT! So Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin but to those who eagerly await Him. Hebrews 9.27-28. Let everyone who is godly pray to God in a time He may be found acknowledging our sins to him, and not try to hide our iniquities from Him, but confess our transgressions to Him. Psalms 32.5-6. Jesus is coming in the clouds one day soon, morning or night or noon, only God knows the hour. Until then we, need to prepare our hearts, know His commandments, and do them.

Good Morning,  

To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven. Ecclesiastes 3.1. At some point in future time (known only by God) Jesus will return with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, with the trumpet of God, 1 Thessalonians 4.16, in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ. 2 Thessalonians 1.8. Jesus will never set foot on this earth again but will hover in the clouds and the dead in Christ will rise first, then those who are alive shall be caught up with them to meet the Lord in the air. 1 Thessalonians 4.17. All deceased will be resurrected, those who have done good to the resurrection of life and those who have done evil to the resurrection of condemnation, John 5.28,29. All people will stand before the judgement seat of Christ, Romans 14.10, 2 Corinthians 5.10. then all will receive their sentence of going one of two places; the righteous will go to heaven to live eternally with God and the evil will go to eternal punishment. Matthew 25.46; John 5.28, 29.  Are you prepared, are you ready for that day to come?

Good Morning,

The Apostles through Jesus Christ received grace and Aposleship by their obedience to their faith among all nations for His name.  Jesus, our Lord was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, but declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness by the resurrection from the dead.  Yet even His disciples, including the Apostles, after seeing all His miracles, and heard all of His preaching and had become believers Matthew 16.13-16, had their hopes weakened when Jesus was crucified.  Their thoughts were since He was dead, He could not have been the Messiah.  But they, even Thomas, understood the true meaning of the resurrection after they saw Him with their own eyes after He was resurrected from the dead. They were doubters at the crucifixion but they became evangelists and It was the resurrection that convicted their hearts and changed their minds.

Reading Romans 1.3-5.

Greetings Brethren and Friends,

When I look around the small community in which I live, I see old buildings being torn down and new buildings erected in their place.  And I am reminded that when we become followers of Christ we put off (tear down) the old man and his sinful ways, and put on (build up) a new man renewed in knowledge according to the image of our Creator.  The old man is completely destroyed, freeing us from all our old ways of sin that structured our life.  And a new man is erected with godly ways to structure our lives with love, mercy, kindness and forgiveness, praising and honoring God in all we do, think, and speak.
