JOHN 3:16
We all know it by heart.  For God so loved the world...  Most people that I have witnessed to that believe there is a God, believe he is love and would not send his creations to hell for eternal torment.  The argument is how can he be a God of love and torture people that don't know him or reject him for all eternity?  How can the two go hand in hand? Its as if God is saying love me as I have loved you or burn in hell for all eternity.   Its like saying love me or else!  It isn't until you get people to realize their sin and then God's act of love to save us from ourselves (our sin) that true loving conviction by the Holy Spirit sets in.  Getting people to realize their sin isn't too difficult, but when you mention Jesus' name is when the defenses go up.  However, we are commanded to spread the Good News and we must let God's Word do the work.  Once we have planted the seed, the Holy Spirit will do the rest.  If we see it start to grow we can water it.  Remember to cut our your Memory Verse from your bulletin and give it to somebody this week!

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
Wow!  What a great turn out for Vacation Bible School!  The kids and the adults all had fun learning, playing, and singing for Jesus!  May we never faint when the opportunity comes to tell people the Good News of Jesus!

This week's memory verse

bible3_sm.jpg

1 Samuel 16:7  The Lord does not see as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.




 


COAT DRIVE - We want to bless people this winter by providing them with a coat, hat, scarf or gloves.  If you have any of these items in storage, in closets or simply laying around in the way and you KNOW you will most likely never wear these items again, please bring them in to the church so that they can be bundled up and given to someone who could really use them now.  God bless you as you give.

FAMILY BIBLE STUDY - We want to invite you to come to our Family Bible study.  You will get sound Biblical teaching and great fellowship.  It begins at 10am and we have a class just for you.

SPECIAL MUSIC - We are in need of singers and musicians for our special music for Sunday morning.  If you would like to help, please let Shirley King know or call (269) 303-0330.

JUST ASK SOMEONE - This week will you ask someone to come to church?  It is easy to do.  Just try and see what happens.

REMINDER: We have a Prayer dish and Praise dish in the foyer.  All are welcome to put your requests in and we will pray over these and add them to the next bulletin for prayer. You can also go to the prayer section of this website to submit prayer requests online.
