What’s New

I have always been interested in things that are new. My wife picks on me because I have to buy every new flavor of soda, bubble gum or potato chip. My logic is that new things are enjoyable, because they are new.

When we read the Bible we read about a new heart, a new spirit, a new covenant, a new and living way, a new song, a new heaven and new earth where righteousness dwells, a new commandment, being a new creature in Christ, being a new man with a new self (a new convert), and my favorite; a new Jerusalem.

Perhaps now I understand why I love God and His word so much. He will one day make all things new, but in the meantime, He has given me all kinds of new things to enjoy and look forward to. Praise God for He is a God of newness.

“The LORD’S lovingkindnesss indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. {They} are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” (Lam 3:22-23)

Why Does A Loving God Allow Suffering?

Lately, we have started a series of lessons on the question, “Why Does A Loving God Allow Suffering?” Most people lose their faith in God over the fact that there is suffering in the world. Nevertheless, there is a reasonable answer to the problem of suffering.

Woman At The Well…

I saw this on Godtube.com and I couldn’t help but share it. Periodically, I will think about how the world around us feels if all we do is look upon them with contempt but never reach out to help them with their soul’s salvation. When compared with Jesus how are we doing in the area of compassion? This will make you think.

For those of you who watch this and you are not in a right relationship with the Lord, please know that we do love you and we are concerned for your soul. Come and let us know how we can serve you.

Taking The Lord’s Supper Seriously

This congregation of Christians is passionate about spending quality time as we surround the Lord’s table each week to remember Him. You can find a list of studies on our website that have been offered during our assemblies together. We believe that early Christians came together for this purpose (Acts 20:7) and it was a meaningful time for them. We want to capture that same love for surrounding His table. Often though this Supper has lost its meaning amongst so many religious circles. The following cartoon demonstrates this:

Jesus said that children had the heart that God was seeking. As children of God we can never lose our appreciation for what Jesus did for us on the cross. Our emotions should be stirred and our will stormed when we remember what the Lord did for us.

In this new year, make it a priority to take your salvation in Christ more seriously. If you aren’t a Christian, seek the Lord and His salvation. Let us help you in your spiritual journey to heaven. 

We hope to see you some time soon.
