Life is a Vapour

June 12, 2015

The Bible says, “Life is a vapour”. James 4:14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

This week we learned of a friend and family member who died of a heart attack while stopped at a traffic light. He was a man in his early 50’s who thankfully had made a profession of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ several years ago and followed Him in baptism in a local church.

Most people think that they have plenty of time to accept Christ and the devil has them fooled into thinking that they can put it off until tomorrow. For them tomorrow may never come.

I am sure when Walt left his house in the morning he never expected to be gone in a few minutes later.

If you are thinking you have plenty of time to make a decision to accept JESUS as your Savior, please stop now and reconsider. You may not have another chance.

It is simple and JESUS is waiting to hear you confess your sin, repent and ask His forgiveness. He loves you, paid for you sins by dying on the cross and is waiting to hear your prayer.

You can pray something like this if you don’t know what to say,

Lord Jesus, I admit I have sinned, I believe you died on the cross for forgiveness of my sins, I ask that you forgive me and come into my heart and life and change me and make my life new. I invite you to be my Savior and I will follow you for the rest of my life. In JESUS name. Amen.

A True Friend

May 1, 2015

Friendship in life is so important. Good friends are one of the blessings in life. CHRISTIANS have a friend that loves us unconditionally, walks with us continually and helps us constantly. JESUS is that friend. 

If you do not have Him as your friend ask Him to come into your life today. He loves you just as you are and is waiting to be your friend.

Proverbs 18:24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

The Best Diet

April 29, 2015

Christian fellowship often centers around food. Food is served at all kinds of events. In America we are blessed to have abundance and variety of whatever we choose to eat.

With that great blessing also comes responsibility to eat correctly. Diet plans are popular and also are available everywhere we look. We could and should be satisfied to have just a small taste of food that would not be good for our health. It is the temptation to over indulge because something looks good and tastes good, then we continue to eat it knowing it is not good for us. But there is something we can have that is extremely good for us and the more we indulge the better we are.

The Bible tells us to taste and see in Psalms. We can be blessed if we follow that advice. Trusting in The Lord Jesus is the best diet. Reading His Word daily, praying  and following Him will bring blessings that no physical diet can ever bring in our lives.

Psalms 34:8 O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

JESUS Cares for You

April 23, 2015

For a Christian the promises of God in the Bible are a great comfort and blessing. If the trials and cares of this world seem to hard to overcome, remember we have a Savior, JESUS Christ, who is waiting to carry your burden because He loves you.

1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Today is the Day of Salvation

April 19, 2015

2 Corinthians 6:2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

If you are not 100% sure you are going to heaven, do not wait to invite JESUS to come into your life.

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

Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Call upon JESUS now. Pray: Dear Lord Jesus, I admit I have sinned. I am sorry and want to turn from my sins and I invite you into my heart and life to save me. Thank you for dying on the cross as payment for my sins. I accept You as my Savior. In Jesus name. Amen

If you asked Jesus to save you today contact SOS Events for a free Bible study and encouragement in your new life in Christ.

Stress

April 11, 2015

Billboard sign, “If stress burned calories, I’d be a super model”.

If you are stressed with the cares of life there is a cure. JESUS is the answer.

1Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

JESUS in the News

April 3, 2015

JESUS is in the news and featured on TV this week. There are several movies, documentaries and discussions about Him. He becomes the popular subject for debate this time of year, especially by newscasters who most do not really know who He is.

It is sad that only 2 times a year, Easter and Christmas that people talk about Jesus. Even CHRISTIANS are guilty. We should be talking and witnessing about Jesus everyday of the year. Without Him there would be no hope of Heaven, no forgiveness of sin and no real joy in our lives.

Christian, let us put JESUS the main subject of discussion 365 days a year. He will give us the power to witness of His great love, death, burial and resurrection.

Acts 4:33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

One Day

April 1, 2015

This hymn could be an Christmas Carol, a song for His Crucifixion, an Easter hymn or a joyful phrase for JESUS coming again. It is a personal favorite because the whole story of Jesus from birth to His coming again! Just read the words penned so long ago by j. Wilbur Chapman.

One day when Heaven was filled with His praises,

One day when sin was as black as could be,

Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin,

Dwelt among men, my example is He!

Refrain

Living, He loved me; dying, He saved me;

Buried, He carried my sins far away;

Rising, He justified freely forever;

One day He’s coming—O glorious day!

One day they led Him up Calvary’s mountain,

One day they nailed Him to die on the tree;

Suffering anguish, despised and rejected:

Bearing our sins, my Redeemer is He!

Refrain

One day they left Him alone in the garden,

One day He rested, from suffering free;

Angels came down o’er His tomb to keep vigil;

Hope of the hopeless, my Savior is He!

Refrain

One day the grave could conceal Him no longer,

One day the stone rolled away from the door;

Then He arose, over death He had conquered;

Now is ascended, my Lord evermore!

Refrain

One day the trumpet will sound for His coming,

One day the skies with His glories will shine;

Wonderful day, my belovèd ones bringing;

Glorious Savior, this Jesus is mine!

Refrain

Hebrews 2:12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.

Witness for JESUS 

March 22, 2015

JESUS came into the world to die on the cross so people could be saved from the penalty of their sins. His love for us is beyond our comprehension. 

His will for those of us who are saved is to tell others of His great love and give them the plan of salvation. Many Christians do not witness. Fear is probably the biggest reason they do not tell others. SOS Events simple method the “3 Things God CanNot Do” helps to take away fear and excuses. SOS has tools, training, tracts and tactics to help anyone become a witness for Christ. All it takes is an email: info@sosevents.org or a phone call 813-784-8242 if you need help to become a soul winner.


For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.  Luke 19:10
