Out of love for one another…….
We are currently requiring everyone attending the Sunday morning worship assembly and Wednesday evening Bible study to wear a mask in keeping with the Health Departments guidelines. We thank you for your consideration of and care for others. Masks are available if you need one.
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:34-35 ESV)
Scripture of the Week
“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” ~~ Matthew 5:14-16
Something to Smile About
History According to Schoolchildren The following excerpts are actual answers given on history tests and in Sunday School quizzes by children between 5th and 6th grade ages in Ohio. They were collected by two teachers over a period of three years.
Moses led the Hebrew slaves to the Red Sea where they made unleavened bread, which is bread made without any ingredients. Moses went up on Mount Cyanide to get the ten commandos. He died before he ever reached Canada but the commandos made it.
Socrates was a famous old Greek teacher who went around giving people advice. They killed him. He later died from an overdose of wedlock which is apparently poisonous. After his death, his career suffered a dramatic decline.
It was an age of great inventions and discoveries. Gutenberg invented removable type and the Bible. Another important invention was the circulation of blood. The Greeks were a highly sculptured people, and without them we wouldn’t have history. The Greeks also had myths. A myth is a young female moth.
Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf that he wrote loud music and became the father of rock and roll. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling for him. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died for this.
Julius Caesar extinguished himself on the battlefields of Gaul. The Ides of March murdered him.Think About It
Made for Another World
C.S. Lewis once wrote, ―If we find ourselves with a
desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most
probable explanation is that we were made for
another world.‖
We know that we were made for another world.
Scripture teaches it. Our own experience testifies to it.
The Psalmist wrote, “As a deer pants for flowing
streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My soul
thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come
and appear before God?” (Ps. 42:1-2).
This world is not all that there is to reality. All of us
will be somewhere forever (Matt. 25:31-46; John
5:28-29; Heb. 9:27).
Do you find yourself with a desire that nothing in
this world can satisfy? Rest assured that such is
because you were created by a loving God who
longs to welcome you into his presence (Luke
15:20). You were made for another world.
