Nebuchadnezzar thought he was all that
Wednesday, 28 July 2010

When the three Hebrew young men refused to bow down to Nebuchadnezzar’s image, he was not pleased (to say the least!).  Certain men told the king, “You, O king, have made a decree… There are certain Jews…[who] have not paid due regard to you.  They do not serve your gods or worship the gold image which you have set up” (Dan. 3:8-12).  In rage and fury, he called the three Hebrews before him.  “Is it true…that you do not serve my gods or worship the gold image which I have set up?...Who is the god who will deliver you from my hands?” (3:13-15).

When others around us deem themselves higher and greater than God, we would do well to remember the response of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego – “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.  If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us…we do not serve your gods…” (3:16-18).

Only God is “all that.”  Read Matthew 4:10, then put your sole trust in Him even more!

"I Did Not Get My Bulletin!"

The title of this article may not mean much to those who receive this bulletin by email, but it probably does to the hundreds who receive it via “snail-mail.” Two weeks ago we had a computer/printer crisis in the office and have been unable to print and mail the bulletin. We apologize to those who missed the bulletin for the past two weeks, but are thankful that we were able to at least email the bulletin to hundreds.

There are some lessons to be learned from every event of our lives. As I think about the events of the past weeks, I am reminded of the words of James, “You do not know what will happen tomorrow” (James 4:14). How easy it is for us to assume that the events of the past assure the continuity in the future. The one absolute assurance of the future is that God is in control and will be there for us!

How do WE KNOW that we are in Christ?
Sunday, 01 August 2010

There is no place more important for one to be than “in Christ”!  Only “in Christ” does one have access to “all spiritual blessings” (Eph. 1:3), “the forgiveness of sins” (Eph. 1:7), “an inheritance” (Eph. 1:11), a life with “no condemnation” (Rom. 8:1), “all the promises of God” (2 Cor. 1:20), and “eternal life” (1 John 5:11).  The “salvation” that each person so desperately needs can only be found “in Christ Jesus” (2 Tim. 2:10).

The New Testament plainly teaches that there is only one means of entering into Christ.  Paul affirms in Romans 6:3, “Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?”
