God’s Light Shines Brightly ~La Lumiere de Dieu brille

Zephaniah 3:4- 20, Matthew 18:21- 35, Jude, Psalms 42, 43, 71

Sophonie 3:4-20, Mattieu 18:21-35, Jude, Psaumes, 42, 43, 71

All the tinsel in the world of commerce cannot cover the splendour of God’s light which is Christ.

Thank God for this “one life” which is pointing to the Second Advent. By getting older this fact is becoming more relevant and meaningful.

ONE LIFE

He was born in a stable

in an obscure village.

From there, he traveled

less than 200 miles.

He never won an election.

He never went to college.

He never owned a home.

He never had a lot of money.

He became a nomadic preacher.

Popular opinion turned against Him.

He was betrayed by a close friend,

and His other friends ran away.

He was unjustly condemned to death,

crucified on a cross among common

thieves, on a hill overlooking the town

dump. And when dead, laid in a borrowed grave.

Nineteen centuries have come and gone.

Empires have risen and fallen.

Mighty armies have marched,

and powerful rulers have reigned.

Yet no one has affected men as much as He.

He is the central figure of the human race.

He is the Messiah, the Son of God,

JESUS CHRIST. Author unknown

Praise and Glory to our God

Rie Arthern

Dans sa vie, Jésus n'avait rien de spécial, mais personne n'a affecté la race humaine autant que lui. Réjouissons- nous dans cette vie, qui nous amène au deuxième avent. On l’apprécie plus avec l’âge.
