Marriage

September 5, 2016

This photo was taken 36 years ago today. Congratulations to Wil and Danielle Slater. They were both only 18 years old and have stayed true to one another and have served the Lord together through many years of happiness and trials. It is a great blessing to see marriages that endure the test of time.

There is another marriage that Christians can look forward to that will last for eternity and that is the “marriage supper of the Lamb”. That is when the bridegroom, Jesus, takes His bride “the church” to be His. The church is all New Testiment Christians who have trusted in Jesus to be their Savior. What a glorious wedding feast that will be. Are you going to the Wedding?  

Revelation 19:9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

Caught Up

August 13, 2016

         Caught Up Together
I sing hallelujah that Jesus is coming, Oh what the raising of life from the dead: the graves bursting open to give up God’s children, those bodies long moldering in graves dusty bed.

Chorus: Caught up together, together, caught up with Jesus and never to part; changed in a moment to be with my Savior, caught up together never to part. 
John R. Rice

1 Thessalonians 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


Forgiveness

August 2, 2016

“Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the temperature of the heart.” Corrie ten Boom

Jesus said, Matthew 6:14-15. For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

 

Donkey or Elephant?

July 20, 2016

We do not usually post something on the blog that has been posted on Facebook or other media but this was too good not to post it again. Thanks, SOS Events board member, Dale Brown for the original post. (For those who may not know, the donkey and the elephant are symbols of the 2 main political parties in the USA)


John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Are You Welcomed?

This was so good it needed to be posted on the blog.


John 8:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

The Right Choice

June 22, 2016

Yesterday, I had the privilege of flying to a destination on a jet plane. What normally would take 14 hours to drive took only a little over an hour on a reliable plane. There was a momentary fear when I overheard the pilot say, “Oh no.” After a temporary power failure. Everything was back to normal in a few seconds and the trip was uneventful. I reached my destination safely.

This made me think of the examples on the website of the 3 planes. If you don’t know these examples go to the home page a scroll down until you see the pictures of 3 planes. 

Everyone wants to go to Heaven but many people are trusting in the wrong “plane” to get them there. Trusting in Jesus death, burial and resurrection for payment for your sins is the only way we can reach our destination, Heaven. Have you made the right choice?

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

Priority 

June 20, 2016

God’s Word and your prayer should be the priority in your life. Get up 15 minutes early everyday to spend time alone with God and your day will go much smoother. If you are not in the habit of having devotions early in the morning, try it and see how you will be blessed.

Proverbs 8:17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.

Name of Jesus

Philippians 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

Peace Be Still

June 6, 2016

Mark 4:39And he (Jesus) arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

Residents of Florida and the East Coast are preparing for a tropical storm named Colin. June 1st, hurricane season starts. Many people fear these storms and it is right to take precautions, however, as Christians we know that the Lord is in control.

We also have “storms” in our lives for which we have no control, but He is the only One who can control every situation with those words, “Peace be still.” Whatever the storm is for you today or in the future if it be physical, mental or spiritual turn to Jesus to calm your fears and bring peace to your heart.

Love One Another

May 24, 2016

Church sign:  LOVE is so nice to RECEIVE, but far more rewarding to GIVE.

1 John 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
