YOU NEVER GET A SECOND CHANCE TO MAKE A FIRST IMPRESSION.

Genesis 6:9-22 Noah was:

1. a righteous man,

2. blameless among the people of his Time,

3. and he walked with God

NOAH DID EVERYTHING JUST AS GOD COMMANDED HIM.

Was he an amateur?

Type “FUTURE” into “SEARCH” and read more about the Future!

Today I picked up a flyer at the ASB and on the leaflet it says:

“INVEST IN YOUR FUTURE.  AND OUR CHILDREN’S.”

People are talking about the FUTURE.

1. Have they been doing that all the time?

2. When did the talking about the FUTURE start?

“WHEN EVERYTHING LOOKS THE DARKEST, IT’S TIME TO TURN ON THE LIGHTS,” I read today in a small publication. I agree with that. So, let us turn to the Bible and read it and be taught by God the Holy Spirit. He will turn the lights on for us.

That happened actually to me this morning in sort of a way. Does not look everything darkest for all of us, when death comes?

At the moment I am reading Paul’s letter to the Romans in the New International Version and the verses twelve to twentyone in chapter five are summarized under the heading “DEATH THROUGH ADAM, LIFE THROUGH CHRIST.”

To summarize again: Death is a fact! There is no need to believe that! The BIble explains that death came through Adam. I believe that. Why? Because death is a fact. No doubt about that.

Death – Where the journey begins! The blessed message of death!

Read the whole story of “Death through Adam and Life through Christ” in Romans 5:12-21.

Romans 5:18,19

Consequently,

1. just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men,

so also the the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life to all men.

2. For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners,

so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

PRAISE THE LORD!

The hymn “Because He Lives” came to my mind some days ago and I still cannot forget it. It is actually one of my favourites.

In church today I asked the songleader if it would be possible to sing the hymn in the church again. To my surprise she answered,” I have already planned to sing it next Sunday and it is in fact the first song on my list.”

I am glad, that I went to her to talk about my request.
