Hello to All,
It's that time of the year, to remember the greatest gift of all times. April the 4th, will be Easter and that means a lot to me. If it were not for the Love Jesus showed on Good Friday and if He had not gone to hell for me, I would still be living in fear of death and have no hope at all. But, because Jesus loved me so much and rose from the tomb on the third day as He promised, I too can have that everlasting Life and know that I can look forward to that mansion, Jesus has prepared for me.
Jesus, said I could have this everlasting life, this mansion with Him on one condition: I must believe that Jesus gave His life for me, because I was a sinner and He paid the price for my sins. We are told in
Roma 3:23 (NIV) for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, “this means you and I” we are also in Roma 6:23 (NIV) For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. And in Roma 5:8 (NIV) But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him! 10 For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!
I thank God that He gave His Son for you and me. I also thank God that He pointed out in
Ephe 2:8 (NIV) For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-- 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. I can do but one thing to receive this everlasting Life, and that accept it as a gift from God.
My hope is that you would come to Jesus and accept this give from Him and enjoy this Easter like never before in your life. Remember what it say’s in 2Cor 6:2 (NIV) For he says, "In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you. Please come and give your life to Jesus Christ today.
Our service will be at 11:00a.m. on the 4th of April, hope to see you there.
In Christ Jesus our Lord:
Pastor Jim McGuire
