only God knows

Matthew 24:36
"But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but My Father only."

Oh, we GOT to KNOW!
When will Jesus RETURN??
NO ONE knows. Only GOD Knows.
Sunday was the first day of Advent. This is the New Year in the Church calendar! In this season we want to celebrate the coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Of course Jesus always was/is and then He became incarnate and was sacrificed for all OUR sins. And, someday He will RETURN. 

 Yesterday we reminded ourselves of who Jesus IS! 
•Jesus IS "the image of the invisible God," When people see Jesus they see GOD all mighty. 
•Jesus IS "the firstborn of every creature:" This is to say He was begotten of GOD the Father in a manner inconceivable and inexpressible by men.
•Jesus IS the bringer forth of every creature into being, "by Him were ALL things created," ALL things in heaven, and in earth, visible and invisible. This is definite and declarative; "by Him ALL things consist." It's by Jesus that our world is supported and maintained. He is here and He is coming again!

I will make you

Matthew 4:19&20 "19 And He saith unto them, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men. 20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed Him." In our "Follow Me" series, we study Jesus calling His disciples in the Gospel of Matthew. By the Sea of Galilee, a thriving fishing hub, Jesus saw Simon and Andrew casting nets as humble fishermen. His disciples were ordinary workers, not wealthy or educated elites. Jesus approached them and said, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." Remarkably, they immediately left their jobs to follow Him. This brief exchange conveys a profound truth: Jesus says, "I will make you." Only God can transform us to accomplish His purpose. We should often pray, "Help me, God," seeking Jesus' guidance to follow His plan for our lives.

God’s patience

2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." God did not immediately punish King Solomon when he allowed his foreign wives to build altars for false gods. Despite multiple compromises, God remained patient. Over time, Solomon’s endorsement of idolatry defied God’s covenant, leading to divine judgment, including the loss of the kingdom for his son. Some mistake God’s patience for indifference or inaction, but He follows His plan in His timing. If our nation, culture, church, or we ourselves stray like Solomon, we can repent and return to God’s path. And, should do so sooner than later! Amen!

Romans 6:3&4 "3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life." In our studies we are striving to understand God’s love and care. God's unconditional love for His followers, appreciating that we are part of GOD’S family! God is with us from cradle to grave. His divine presence is always giving us purpose and guidance. One of the most important milestones in the life of a Christian is baptism. When we are baptized, an indelible mark is made on our soul. This mark signifies a permanent transformation and dedication of the individual to God. The act of Baptism involves water and the invocation of the Holy Trinity. This ritual is seen as a symbolic washing away of original sin and a new birth into the life of Christ. Baptism is a foundational s...
