Dear Church Family,
John the Baptist came into the world to pave the way for the Messiah, Jesus. Jesus came to provide a way in which we could be reconciled with God, and receive salvation as a true reflection of the love God has for us. Through the gift of his life, death and resurrection with power, all of this was accomplished. Consequently, we can have inner peace and stop worrying about everything. In John 16:33 Jesus said “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
Based on this we can be assured that we will be saved. Once saved we should focus on working together toward mutual peace and the sharing of God’s love. 2 Corinthians 13:11 says “Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.”
May this be something you realize this Advent season.
Blessings,
Pastor Rick
