" THE WORLD "

This week we are looking into " The World " so please put on your listening ears. So saddle up and let's get going. The Creation Story teaches us about God and Ourselves. First, we learn about God: (1) He is creative; (2) As the Creator he is distinct from his creation; (3) He is eternal and in control of the world. We also learn about Ourselves: (1) since God chose to create us, we are valuable in his eyes; (2) We are more important than animals. " WORLD " Earth, humanity 1- The physical earth; 2- All the people who inhabit the earth; 3- The physical universe; 4- The system of Sin in the world under the control of Satan and the attitude and life styles of those who have not yet trusted in Christ for Salvation, or are opposed to him. Those who are tied to the world's system will lose everything when it collapses. What they have worked for a lifetime to build up will be destroyed in one hour. Those who work only for material rewards will have nothing when they die or when their possessions are destroyed. What can we take with us to the New Earth? Our Faith our Christian Character, and our Relationships with other Believers. These are more important than any amount of Money, Power, or Pleasure. The world hates Christians because Christian's values differ from the world's. Because Christ's followers don't cooperate with the world by joining in their sin, they are living accusations against the world's immorality. The world follows Satan's agenda and Satan is the avowed enemy of Jesus and his people. ****** IF YOU CHOOSE TO RESPOND, PLEASE USE MY g mail email account. ***** Until Next Time... Jim,
