Trust

August 12, 2015

While sitting in an airport waiting to board a plane, the thoughts go to trust. We trust that the plane will get us to our destination safely.

SOS Events “3  Things God Can Not Do” tract gives a choice of which plane we would get on. Three planes, one is 50%, one is 75% or the third is 100% sure we will get to our destination, which would you choose?

Going to heaven is a choice, also. If you are not 100% sure you are going to Heaven go to the home page scroll down and follow the directions. 

It is a matter of trust. Trusting the Lord Jesus to save you is the answer. 

Psalms 37:40 And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.

What a Friend We Have in Jesus

August 11, 2015

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful 

Who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His arms He’ll take and shield you

You will find a solace there.
Blessèd Savior, Thou hast promised
Thou wilt all our burdens bear
May we ever, Lord, be bringing

All to Thee in earnest prayer.

Soon in glory bright unclouded
There will be no need for prayer
Rapture, praise and endless worship
Will be our sweet portion there.
This hymn was written by Joseph M. Scriven for his mother who was far away from him in Ireland. Written in 1855 this hymn still brings comfort and peace to many.

John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

The Son

July 28, 2015

“Exposure to the Son may prevent burning.”

Sign on a church marquee.

The Son is Jesus Christ and trusting Him as your Savior will prevent you from going to Hell.

John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

JESUS is the Answer

June 27, 2015

It is hard to stay positive with all the news that is swirling around us. Killing all over the world, wars, rumors of wars, crazy weather patterns, decisions from courts that are not biblical, good is called evil and evil is called good. 

The Bible tells us that this will happen and we are seeing it now. The solution for the individual: turn to the only true answer for peace of mind and heart JESUS. JESUS is the answer. 

If you do not have Him as your personal Savior go to the home page and scroll down to the “3 Things God Can Not Do” follow all the instructions through the ABC’s and go to the prayer, sincerely ask forgiveness and repent of all your sins. Jesus will become your Savior and walk with you from that moment on.

If you do that we request that you then fill out the decision card and SOS Events will sent you free Bible studies so you can begin your new life with Christ.

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

Forgiveness

June 25, 2015

“God sometimes uses things he hates to accomplish things he loves.”

This is a quote from one of the granddaughters of a man that was murdered in   Charleston, SC. What a testimony to the world of how a Christian should react to tragedy. 

The families of the 9 people who were shot by an evil young man have shown love and forgiveness to the one who killed their loved ones. They have followed the example of JESUS who when He was dying on the cross said, “Father, forgive them.”

Luke 23:34  Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.

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.
