Hello August! Friday Night Dinner & Bible Study, This I Believe & the eNews for August 5, 2018 – https://t.co/OD9NC6ubCh

This Sunday we’ll be tackling message 10 in our series on the Statement of Faith of our church. It’s been a stretch for me to do a topical series that has a lot of verses from different parts of the bible but I appreciate the time to present what is called a “systematic theology” of what every believer in Christ should believe.

There’s one event that no one on earth will be able to avoid: Judgment Day. The bible clearly teaches that one day we will stand before Jesus and hear one of two things: “Well done my good and faithful servant” or, “Away from me, I never knew you!” With this in mind let me ask you, “Do you know for sure what Jesus will say to you on that day?” [bctt tweet=”Do you know for sure what Jesus will say to you on that day?” username=”baysidesanjose”]

I like to use this post to present several of the passages that I’ve been looking at for this Sunday. Due to time we obviously can’t look at them all in depth on Sunday morning. If you place your mouse over the passages they should appear for you. Here we go:

Matthew 7:21-23

2 Corinthians 5:10

Matthew 25:31-46

1 Corinthians 15:20-23

John 5:28-29

Acts 17:22-31

Revelation 20:11-15

Philippians 2:8-11

There will come a day when Jesus will sit upon a throne. Before that throne EVERY knee will bow and EVERY tongue confess that Jesus is Lord. I pray that we will live with one thought in mind: “I need to live my life as if death is the beginning of a new journey and not the end of a short journey.”
