Jesus Paid It All

April 16, 2014

“When the Lord Jesus Christ became my surety . . . He went to Calvary’s cross, and all my guilt was charged against Him. He settled for everything, and then He cried, ‘It is finished.’ And on the basis of that finished work, God can freely forgive, and justify completely, every poor sinner who trusts in the Lord Jesus Christ.” ~ Dr. Harry A. Ironside

This quote is from a great preacher who is probably forgotten or never heard of by most young Christians, but he knew how to explain that our sins are completely forgiven by the death of Jesus on the cross. Jesus paid for all our sins on the cross and all we have to do is repent, admit to him that we need forgiveness, believe that He paid for ALL our sins and ask Him to forgive our sins and make our lives new.

Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

God’s Love

April 15, 2014

God proved His love on the cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, “I love you.”
Billy Graham

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Salvation Story

April 14, 2014

The mother, Holly 36 & sons, Alexander & Aaron were saved yesterday. The mother was saved @ 12:40 however her sons were not with her. Later the family reunited & the sons heard their mother’s testimony of what the Lord had just done for her. The sons said they wanted to hear this message too. So 30 minutes later the boys came back & Joyce led them to the Lord Jesus as well. The husband/father & oldest son are in prison. Let’s pray for their salvation.

Busy Saturday

April 12, 2014

Saturday is a busy day for staff and volunteers at SOS Events. Today there is the weekly Flea Market in Auburndale, a big Egg Hunt at a large church in Fishhawk (1500) expected, a huge yearly yard sale at another church and many other events all around the country.
You can be a partner with SOS today by joining us in prayer for the various events. Pray that The Lord will draw people to the SOS booth, that the ones listening to the presentation will have the conviction of the Holy Spirit, and then that they will yield to that calling and be saved, also, that every convert will fill out a decision card so that we can send them a Bible study and they can begin to grow in Christ.
Please pray as soon as you read this, God will hear and answer as that is His desire to see souls saved.

2 Corinthians 1:11
Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.

Eggs, Bunnies and Baskets

April 11, 2014

If you go into almost any store, grocery, clothing, or drugstore this time of year what you see first is colored plastic eggs, plush bunnies, colorful baskets and spring flowers. Signs may say Happy Easter but nowhere ( except a Christian Bookstore) do you find anything about Jesus and His death, burial and resurrection.
The very reason we have to celebrate Easter is forgotten and it has become a day to be with family, friends with all kinds of activity that has nothing to do with the worship of God.
Have we as Christians become like the retail stores and forgotten the true meaning of Easter?
This coming week let us focus on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.

Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Little Sins

April 8, 2014

“A little thorn may cause much suffering. A little cloud may hide the sun. Little foxes spoil the vines; and little sins do mischief to the tender heart. These little sins burrow in the soul, and make it so full of that which is hateful to Christ, that he will hold no comfortable fellowship and communion with us. A great sin cannot destroy a Christian, but a little sin can make him miserable….”
Charles Spurgeon

Romans 3:23
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

Are You An Orphan?

April 7, 2014

“Don’t say ‘Our Father’ on Sundays and spend the rest of the week acting like an orphan”
