    Rainbow Promises
    Series: 2023

    God’s word begins with Genesis 1:1 God created the heavens and the Earth
     
    By Genesis 8, man was so evil, God destroyed everyone except the family of Noah
     
    In Genesis 9 God makes us a promise that includes a sign
     
    The Rainbow!!
     
     
    This weekend in VBS the theme has been Noah and the Ark
     
    What I want to focus on today in the Promise or the Covenant
     
    A covenant made by God to all living things
     
    A covenant that God wanted to remind us of often so He gave us a beautiful rainbow
     
    A rainbow is actually a full circle when seen from above but we only see half from the ground
     
    A circle also represents perfection and continuity
     
    God destroyed the earth because of the evil of man
     
    This covenant never says man won’t be punished for their evil
     
    However it is a promise that God loves us so much he won’t flood the whole world again
     
     
    The first thing that Noah did when he stepped out of the ark was give an offering to God
     
    God says “the intent of a man’s heart is evil”
     
    The only thing that can change that is God
     
    Some try to explain away the rainbow as simply a scientific explanation
     
    God’s word clearly shows that a rainbow is from God
     
    Some of the most beautiful rainbows seem to occur after the worst storms
     
    God reminding us that He will never leave us or forsake us even when times are bad.
     
    Have you ever seen a double rainbow?
     
    Have you ever noticed that the color pattern of the second rainbow is a reverse of the first
     
    How amazing!  I like to think of that as a full picture from top to bottom and bottom to top.
     
    No matter what comes your way God is always there
     
    A rainbow also causes me to think of another covenant from God
     
    The one in which Jesus gave His life to save yours
     
    This beauty makes a rainbow dim in comparison
     
    Have you ever entered into that covenant with God?

    Forgivness Is Paramount
    Series: 2023

    Everyone here is human
     
    Since we all make mistakes, we all need forgiveness
     
    God gave us the ultimate forgiveness, if we accept it
     
     
    If we have been forgiven, what does that mean for us?
     
     
    When we need forgiveness, it is the greatest thing we can receive
     
    Forgiveness can repair relationships as nothing else can
     
    In this passage a person was in the wrong but they asked for compassion
     
    The compassion led to complete forgiveness
     
    This was an incredible act of kindness
     
    Unfortunately, many people receive forgiveness but don’t reciprocate
     
     
    Forgiveness should be given as easily as it is received
     
    Today we hear many people say, I can never forgive them
     
    I’m talking about Christians right now
     
     
    When we have been forgiven there are consequences if we don’t forgive
     
    If we are to have a relationship, forgiveness is paramount
     
    When we hold unforgiveness in our hearts, the person that hurts the most is us
     
    Unforgiveness creates a barrier to a relationship with people and with God
     
    When we have hurt someone we need to go to them and apologize
     
    This gives us a chance to show our sorrow and them a chance to forgive
     
     
    We need to go to those we have hurt and make amends
     
    This can make both hearts right with God
     
    See we, as believers, must give others the same forgiveness that God gives us
     
    The way to do this is be kind to everyone
     
    If we do something wrong to someone, apologize
     
    When someone apologizes, forgive them
     
    Have you received the forgiveness that Jesus offers today?

    Excessive Heat Warning
    Series: 2023

    This week we will celebrate Independence day!
     
    As a country we are blessed to be free to live and worship as we choose
     
    So many people have fought and even died to make sure we have this freedom
     
    Which brings me to today’s very pointed message
     
    We ALL have a choice of where we will spend eternity
     
    This last week we spent under an Excessive Heat Warning
     
    It has been so hot, peoples shoes were literally sticking to melting asphalt
     
    If you choose to reject Jesus Christ…..you ain’t seen nothing yet.
     
     
    We don’t like to talk about Hell because it is scary
     
    I personally don’t believe that our minds can even comprehend how horrifying it is
     
    And this horror and pain and suffering and heat will NEVER end
     
    Are you scared?
     
    All week long I heard about how bad the heat was and looking for when it will end.
     
    Praise God, this too will pass
     
    According to what I just read in Revelation, Hell is no joke but it is real!
     
    People make jokes about hell.  When God described it, He wasn’t joking
     
    Think of the most horrifying awful thing you can think of and multiply by a billion
     
    Some say don’t use hell as a way to convince people to accept Christ
     
    I just want you to know the reality of your choice
     
    Now, here is some good news
     
    You don’t have to spend an eternity in Hell
     
    In the beginning of the passage I read from Revelation, it mentioned a 2nd book
     
    The Book of Life
     
    If your name is found in that book, you will be spared the penalty for your sins
     
     
    This passage says “having believed you were sealed”
     
    That sealed, means you were written in the book of life and sealed in it
     
    You can’t get scratched out of it.
     
    Those who were found in the book of life were not cast into the lake of fire.
     
    Those in the book of life are sealed in Him, meaning for all eternity
     
    This means you will spend an eternity in Heaven with Jesus
     
    Today, it all boils down to your choice. Only you can choose.
