MERRY CHRISTMAS!!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS!!  LISTEN TO THIS BRIEF BUT POWERFUL MESSAGE BY PASTOR JOHN CHAPMAN!!

On Christmas morning heavenly angels appeared to lowly shepherds. Heaven and Nature sang together that slavatio had come to all mankind.

The message of Romans & the whole Bible is that the Gospel loves ME!  NOTHING can seperate us from His love.  Do YOU love the gospel?

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 says: "rejoice always, Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks." We rejoice because our future has great hopewhich makes us thankful in everything situation. Prayer is the glue that holds rejoicing & thankfulness together.

Pastor John teaches us through Eph 6:18 as his main text on the importance and why we should always pray.  Don't miss this wonderful message.

Ephesians 6:18

18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—

This old world can wear us down sometimes. But..there is freedom from fear & frustration when we know the best is yet to come & He is working all things for our good! (Romans 8:28-30)

Today we have a visitor.  Phillip Claycolm.  Phillips dad is a missionary and would not be with us so we are honored to have his son in his place.  He has a great message for us all.

In Christ we are free from the bondage of sin & from the condemnation of the law. The law cannot change you, make you good, or set your free.  Grace is the power to honor & obey God through HIS strenghth!

Lazarus came out of the grave tied up in grace clothes. Jesus said "loose him & let him go!" Too many Christians are "in between" the cross & the resurrection still wrapped in grace clothes. Let's come to full life today!!

God condemned the whole world because of ONE man's sin(Adam) so that He could save it by ONE Man's perfect sacrifice. "where sin abounded,Grace abounded much more! (Rom 5:20)
