Preparing For a Trip!

May 16, 2024

When we prepare for a trip, especially a long one, there is much to do. What is the best way to get there?

Should we fly or drive? Where will we stay? What is the cost?

When all the plans are finalized, then we wait with great expectation.

Everyone has a final trip to make for all eternity. The greatest plans for a trip we will ever make.

There is only 2 destinations. Heaven or the Lake of Fire.

Where our journey ends is entirely our choice.

There is only one way to Heaven and Eternal Life. That is by accepting Jesus as our Savior.

Have you made your plans for the trip for eternity?

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6

Preparing For A Trip!

January 23, 2024

When going on a trip, business or pleasure, we prepare by making sure we pack everything we may need. Proper clothing, toiletries and identification. We are looking forward to the trip with great anticipation.

We are preparing for the greatest trip we will ever take, the journey to Heaven. The preparation should be the most important thing on our minds. The first thing is salvation. No one enters Heaven without it. Then, daily Bible reading and prayer. A pure lifestyle is important, also. Are you ready for this trip?

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.

Home With Jesus!

November 25, 2023

David Dow, friend, helper, dedicated Christian went to bed after a wonderful Thanksgiving with his wife, Vickie and family.

He woke up in Heaven! What a beautiful sight he must be seeing. He is rejoicing to meet his Savior, Jesus face to face.

David was a vital part of SOS Events Ministry. He helped develop the display boards that we use to win people to the Lord.

Many of those boards are still in use today and hundreds of people have been saved by seeing the “3 Things God Can Not Do” on a display that David made.

He willingly taught his method of producing the displays to Roger. That is a good thing as the ministry needs these tools to continue the work.

David was always ready to help in any way he could to further the Gospel.

He loved his family. He was a faithful friend and will be missed by all who knew him.

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. Psalms 116:15

Home with the Lord!

Beverly Lucas

SOS Events Team in Florida will miss our friend, Beverly, who went home to be with the Lord last week.

Beverly was a faithful friend who rarely missed the opportunity to fellowship and work with the Senior Servant who gather every month to get out the “Life Saver News”, the SOS Events monthly newsletter.

She is missed but the one thing we who are saved look forward to is knowing that we will meet again one day.

Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints. Psalms 115:16

Church Sign

September 7, 2022

This sign was on a church marquee. We may smile at that but there is a lesson in it.

None of us know when it will be our last day on earth. Death comes to the old and the young. We could have a tragic accident and be gone in seconds. Illness could strike and we could be gone in a day or two.

Are you ready? There is only one way to be sure of eternal life in Heaven. Jesus is the way , the truth and the life. Trust in Hime today, before it is too late.

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6

Heading Home

August 26, 2022

When we are on a journey, business or pleasure, the one thing we look forward to is heading home.

As Christians we are on a journey through life. God gives us many things that are for our pleasure. Family, friends, homes, good food, clothing and many things we can enjoy.

God also gives us work to do for him. Love for others, church, witnessing for Him. Many opportunities to do service for the Lord.

However, we should be longing for Home. Heaven. Are we headed in the right direction? We have a roadmap to follow. That is the Bible, God’s Holy Word.

It is important to check the roadmap on a trip, but more important to check the Bible everyday to keep us on the right road.

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. Romans 15:4

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2 Timothy 3:16

Are You Packed?

June 14, 2022

Just as we pack for a trip, there are things we need to “pack” on our journey toward Heaven.

The first and most important is Salvation. Being saved is our ticket, and without it we cannot enter. Prayer, Faith, Love Joy, Patience, Goodness, Truth, Service, Witnessing and Forgiveness. (you may think of a few more) are needed for our trip.

In this picture is a cat which cannot be taken and on our life’s journey we need to leave out things also, Hate, Lying, Gossip, Pride and Disobedience are a few. As you prepare for Heaven, what are you “packing” to be ready?

1 Peter 1:9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

Where Is Your Treasure?

May 11, 2022

You may have a beautiful home or you may be living in a place of poverty. You may not have a home at all and have no earthly possessions. Whatever you have or wherever you live will not matter when you get to Heaven.

How do we lay up treasures in Heaven? We must be sure we are going there by trusting in Jesus for forgiveness of sin.

Obedience to God’s Word. Loving God with all your heart and loving one another.

Telling others about salvation. There is a crown for soul winners. All our treasure in Heaven we can lay at Jesus feet. He is the One who is worthy of all our love, devotion and treasure.

Homesick For Heaven

April 25, 2022

Have you ever been away from your home and felt homesick?

As Christians we should be longing for our permanent home which is Heaven. The cares of this life overwhelm us at times.

Even in good times, like getting married or having a new baby, we should still have a desire to look to our heavenly home, Heaven.

Think about the joy of seeing our Savior, Jesus! Reunion with loved ones who have gone on before us. Not to mention the wonderful plans Jesus has for us that we cannot even imagine.

Homesick for Heaven!

Death, Not The End, Just The Beginning

March 16, 2022

Today many of SOS Events staff will attend the funeral of a friend, Joyce Elaine Sherwood Schlegel Morris. Her husband Danny Morris was the person who helped SOS Events Ministry get started.

Joyce will be missed. However, it is not the end of her life, it is just the beginning.

The Bible tells us that we have eternal life if we have trusted Jesus as our Savior. There will be tears today because we will no longer see her on this earth but we do have the assurance that we will meet again in Heaven.

And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 1 John 5:11

Y el testimonio es éste: que Dios nos ha dado vida eterna, y esta vida está en su Hijo. 1Juan 5:11
