Jesus' birth may have been in the Spring, but it is good to celebrate the birth, life death, resurrection each season. It is good to remain MINDful of His return also each day.
Our message from our Pastor Doctor Johnson dealt with something that was on his heart for 2 years. We were blessed by his references to responsibilities of Fathers and Parents and the duty of the children.
Both are prophetically related to our relationship with Family. The first reference to this is in Genesis ironically. Therefore shall a man LEAVE HIS FATHER, .... AND CLEAVE UNTO HIS WIFE. Is this not what Joseph did even though Jesus was not his baby?
We as the church are referred to as the BRIDE OF CHRIST. When Jesus returns He will SAVE His bride. He will find her spotless and pure and not just virgins in law, but one with Him in Wisdom having oil ready in their lamps in the DAYTIME, when it is time to work, We should not be scrambling around trying to find or buy some after sleeping which we know we will do each day by grace of God. Are you a part of this wedding?
Are you a child of the King ready each day to make your Father in heaven happy not grieving the Spirit of the ONE TRUE LIVING GOD? In making Him happy you Glorify Him. Did not the Father say of the Son, "In him I am Truly Pleased". did not the Son say in John 17 " I have glorified thee on the earth....... How can you glorify anyone without making him happy. Are not these two words synonymous in a sense? May God be praised for our PastoO r? Thank God for Jesus our EVERLASTING FATHER (Isaiah 6)
Was not the son given to the world, such that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life? Was not the Child born. Were these two events simultaneous? Yes in an actuarial sense, but the sacrifice on the cross required the GIVING. No one but He who was worthy could open the scroll, and be sacrificed for the sin of the World.
