Signos y señales en las manos de un pandillero expresando muerte y tu sin saberlo, pero tambien muecas de descontento detras de la persona que dices querer mucho. Vivimos en un mundo reguido por signos y señales que nos ayudan a seguir vivos, piensa por un instante que seria de nuestra vida sin las leyes de transito cuando manejamos un carro por la calle, pero sabes hay un signo una señal que verdaderamente me conmueve la miro todos los dias cuando camino por la calle, en la casa de un amigo, quizas le tengas tu tambien en tu casa, colgando del espejo retrovisor de tu carro, o adornando tu pecho colgando de tu cuello. En el ayer la cargo Jesucristo y hoy la puedo ver en la sombra de cada persona, cuando estira sus brazos sin darse cuenta que la sombra de CRISTO nos sigue a donde quiera que vamos. Para DIOS la cruz simbolo de salvacion y vida eterna, pero tambien verguenza, sufrimiento, y muerte. DIOS dio a su hijo como substituto en la peor muerte posible el sangro y murio en la cruz en nuestro lugar, El dio su sangre por las transgresiones del mundo entero. COMO BIEN SABEN, USTEDES FUERO RESCATADOS DE LA VIDA ABSURDA QUE HEREDARON DE SUS ANTEPASADOS. EL PRECIO DE SU RESCATE NO SE PAGO CON COSAS PERCEDERAS, COMO EL ORO O LA PLATA, SINO CON LA PRECIOSA SANGRE DE CRISTO, COMO DE UN CORDERO SIN MANCHA Y SIN DEFECTO. CRISTO, A QUIEN DIOS ESCOGIO ANTES DE LA CREACION DEL MUNDO, SE HA MANIFESTADO EN ESTOS ULTIMOS TIEMPOS EN BENEFICIO DE USTEDES. POR MEDIO DE EL USTEDES CREEN EN DIOS, QUE LO RESUCITO Y GLORIFICO, Marco Aparicio Nick Macias Garry Sage DE MODO QUE SU FE Y SU ESPERANZA ESTAN PUESTAS EN DIOS. Galatas 2:20 HE SIDO CRUSIFICADO CON CRISTO, Y YA NO VIVO YO SINO QUE CRISTO VIVE EN MI. LO QUE AHORA VIVO EN EL CUERPO, LO VIVO POR LA FE EN EL HIJO DE DIOS, QUIEN ME AMO Y DIO SU VIDA POR MI. Yo soy tu hermano Gilberto............... Sunday February 22, 2015 Sermon Notes Paul’s Ponder Sermon Title: The Mission Lesson 6: “Having this Treasure in Jars of Clay” Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:7-12 Song Leader Song Announcement Prayer of Praise Song Communion Lead Assisting SUNDAY February 22, 2015 “Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country.” JFK Some people go to church because of what they get out of it. Then there are some who go to give. I believe that when you go to serve God that means you are looking for opportunities to give to others. When we decide to come together to give as much as we can, we will get more than we ever have. We won’t be pew sitters, we will be God pleasers. Let me tell you about my buddy. My buddy is one of those persons who is very perceptive. He actively looks for ways that he can be of service to others. He watches people to see how he can help them. He listens to what people say whether they are talking to him or not. I know of him giving a Bible to a person who did not have one. Another time he gave a phone cover when he saw a need. I am cheap. My “Sunday Shoes” I received as a gift last century. I treat them nice and only wear them on special occasions. I have had them resoled. Within the past few months the seam along the back has ripped causing them to slip and squeak when I walk. I figure I can still get another good year out of them. But my buddy noticed. This past Sunday while I was preaching about loving one another, my buddy was practicing love. He brought me a new pair of shoes. I have been blessed by this man’s desire to serve. My buddy is not the only one. A dear lady loves to give gift certificates. She spreads love and sunshine to everyone she meets and then as the spirit moves her, she will give gift certificates. A special blessing. Others have invited visitors to lunch, made jewelry, assisted with home or auto repairs, sat next to someone so they were not alone, volunteered to serve, said an encouraging word to a child, recommended places, given directions, sent birthday cards, written notes, shared hugs and kisses, offered praise, sang joyously, given food to the needy, visited the sick… I cannot tell all the things people do just because they want to serve God. When Christianity is a life style of service and not “going to church” you will find that you are the one blessed and God is praised. 17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
