The Way Bible Study

Jan 29

Posted by Admin in Misc | 1 Comment

On February 14th we will be starting a new study called ‘The Way’

One of the earliest names that the first Christians gave to their new found faith was ‘The Way’. It is found a number of times in the book of Acts in the Bible (e.g. Acts 9:2). The title suggests the first Christians viewed being a Christian, not as a religion you sign up to, or a prayer you pray, but as a way to follow – the way of salvation and a way of life. Jesus himself said that he is ‘the way’ to God the Father (John 14:6), and that ‘the way’ is narrow that leads to life (Matthew 7:14). Christianity is often a difficult, narrow way to live, but the blessings of knowing God, and His life to the full, are truly out of this world!

Wise Men Still Seek Him

Jan 1

At this time we look back and remember the revelation of our Lord and Saviour coming to the Earth as part of Gods plan for us.

Christmas for some has just become a commercial festival, which, once it has run it’s course and the January sales have finished is all over for another year.

In the Church however it has become a time of celebration looking back to the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.  But why do we just look back? Jesus came to the Earth the first time over 2000 years ago but the Bible tells us that He is coming to this Earth a second time…

The Second Coming is predicted in each of the four Gospels, in the book of Acts and in the epistles of Paul, James, Peter and John. Jesus’ return is the focal point of the entire book of Revelation. If you believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, then you must believe in the Second Coming of Christ.

There are some 300 scriptures which talk about the first coming of Jesus and that came to pass as the bible said, but there are some 600 which talk about the return of Jesus…the second coming of Jesus. Here is a comparison of Jesus first coming and his second coming

 

1. First coming – Lamb

John 1:29 – The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

Second coming – Lion
Revelation 5:5 – … Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals.
