Ezdras

Ezdras preached on forgiveness. He spoke of the second chance and used both Matthew 18:21-22 and Peter´s question of how many times should we forgive. Jesus said 7 times 70 or ALWAYS. He showed a short video on the prodigal son.   He told the children not to carry weight that Jesus wants you to give to Him. See Luke 15:11-32.

It is wonderful to have the staff we have. Their love for the children and love for God and love for the Word is so obvious. The Bible says that Christians are to live a life that glorifies God. If we please God, then we will please the right people.

This coming Sunday is parent visitation and for over a year we have opened the service to the parents. I know of three who have received Christ during that period. In fact, one mother received Christ the same day her daughter did.

Billy Graham said, “Becoming a Christian is the work of a moment; being a Christian is the work of a lifetime:” Our lives are our best testimony. We win more people to Christ through our lives rather than our words. PHYSICIAN is another name for Jesus as seen in Luke 30-31. “But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a PHYSICIAN, but they that are sick.” The scribes and pharisees were horrified that Jesus and His disciples would associate with sinful people. But Jesus made it clear that He had been sent to people like these. They needed a Savior and Deliverer. He was the PHYSICIAN
