Opportunity for Study

January 8, 2016

What a wonderful time of food and fellowship at Evangelical College and Seminary in Plant City, Florida last evening. This gathering was to meet with teachers, students and friends of the school. Dr. Wallace Lont welcomed everyone and Dr.Gary Williams gave a wonderful overview of where we are in God’s plan for the world. 

The spring semester begins Monday, January 11. The purpose of ECS is to help believers to develop a deeper understanding of God’s Word and experience God’s transforming power in their lives.

This semester SOS Events will have a part teaching Evangelism and Decipleship on Tuesday mornings starting Tuesday, Januay 12 at 9 am. Tom and Carolyn Curtis will be teaching not only in the classroom but there will be opportunity for witnessing and follow up for each student in the class. This is a great step for SOS Events and a long time answer to prayer as God laid the desire to teach evangelism in Tom and Carolyn’s hearts many years ago.

If you live near Plant City, Lakeland, Brandon or Tampa area in Florida and want to further your education check out ECS website for more information. http://www.Evangelical-College.org. 

Please pray for ECS, the teachers and students as the spring semester begins.

2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

The Answer is in The Book

January 2, 2016

Every Christian needs to get alone with God everyday. Fifteen minutes a day can take you through the Bible in a year. It is not to late to start if you begin today. This is leap year, February has 29 days that will catch you up if you did not start on January first. (There are several yearly Bible reading plans on the web)

Some people read a Proverb a day, which is a wonderful place to seek wisdom. The Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are the books to read to know Jesus better and learn more of His sacrifice for you. Interested in prophecy? Daniel and Revelation are the books for you. Whatever you need the answer is in the Book, the Bible.

Let God speak to you through His Word and then you will be able to speak to Him through prayer. 

Psalms 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

Prophecy Fulfilled 

December 29, 2015

Prophesy fulfilled. After the wise men’s visit, Joseph was warned in a dream to take Jesus and Mary and flee to Egypt. Herod was seeking to kill Jesus and not getting a report back from the wise men he had all the young children in Bethlehem killed. But Jesus was safe and the little family stayed in Egypt until Herod was dead.

Then once again Joseph had a dream and returned but went to live in Nazareth where Jesus grew from childhood until He started His earthly ministry.

God’s Word is true. Every prophesy concerning Jesus birth was fulfilled down to the last detail. Many people leave Jesus in the manger as a baby but do not believe future events also predicted in the Bible. Jesus is the Messiah, He did die on the cross and He is coming again to rule and reign over all the world. Are you ready for a great future with Jesus the coming King?

Matthew 2:13-15 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt: And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.

The First Day of the Week

November 8, 2015

Sunday, the first day of the week, Jesus came to the disciples and said, “Peace be unto you.” May today, the first day of this week and all week long, bring you the peace that only Jesus can give.

John 20:19  Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

God Has A Plan

October 14, 2015

“God has a master plan for your life, and that master plan does not change either. It is a plan designed specifically for you. It is a plan that God intends for you to live out fully, beginning at the moment of your birth and never ending until the moment of your death.” Dr. Charles Stanley

Psalm 32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

JESUS, Every Knee Shall Bow

October 10, 2015

Yesterday, Octorber 9, in a major retail store a large display of Christmas trees, decorations and gifts were displayed. The commercialism for a special Holiday commemorating Jesus birth has been turned into a money making event and the worst part of it all is the name JESUS can not even be spoken in public.

His name, the Bible and any form of Christianity has been ridiculed and denounced by our government because of the “rights” of other religions (or lack of any religion). What happened to our Nation that was founded on the principles in the Bible? Freedom OF religion, not freedom From religion.

The Bible tells us that every knee shall one day bow to Jesus, the One who shed His blood that we may have eternal life. Let us who are Christians honor Him by telling others about Him and change the lives of people one person at a time.

Philippians 2:10-11 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Peace of God

October 6, 2015

“Don’t let the noise of the world drown out the peace of God’s Love.”

If you watch the news on TV, listen to the radio, or read the newspaper you know that the world is in chaos. The Bible tells us that we can have peace and joy no matter what the circumstance.

The secret of peace is to know God, read his word every day and trust him completely.

Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

The 10 Commandments 

September 25, 2015

The Ten Commandments Are Not Multiple Choice. 

If in the USA the 10 Commandments were allowed to be posted in our schools and public buildings the crime, chaos and confusion may be kept to a minimum and our Country would be a safer place.

9/11

September 11, 2015

9/11 A day that Americans remember. Do you remember where you were when you first heard or saw the twin towers collapse? Then watched in horror as the day went from bad to worse.

For awhile people in the USA turned to God. The churches were full. People prayed for safety and peace. Then time went on and little by little life became “normal” for most and once again complacency took over the lives Americans.

Today, fourteen years later, things have become worse in the USA, riots, murders, lawlessness in our major cities and threats from foreign countries happen daily.

Politics is not the answer, racial equality is not the answer, stopping illegal immigration is not the answer, stable stock market is not the answer. There is only one solution given by God Himself in the Bible.

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Blessed Assurance

September 8, 2015

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!

Heir of salvation, purchase of God,

Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.

Refrain:

This is my story, this is my song,

Praising my Savior all the day long;

This is my story, this is my song,

Praising my Savior all the day long.

Perfect submission, perfect delight,

Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;

Angels, descending, bring from above

Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

Perfect submission, all is at rest,

I in my Savior am happy and blest,

Watching and waiting, looking above,

Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

Fanny Crosby 1873

Fanny Crosby was blind physically but not spiritually. She had faith and full assurance in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ to save her and wrote many hymns in her lifetime that are still sung and are a blessing to many over 100 years later.

Our prayer is that you who are reading this have the same assurance of the forgiveness that can be yours through faith in Jesus. It is as simple as admitting you have sinned, believing that He paid for your sins, asking Him to forgive you and change your life. He will come into your life and your life will change as you grow in the knowledge and understanding of His Word.

Hebrews 10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
