New Year's Day Sermon: Reverend Matthew J. Pearson sermon was about rewards when you receive and believe in Jesus

Article 1 Volume 13          Sunday, January 1, 2023

Scripture for today St. John 1:12 and 13.  (Read your Bible)
text:  When we receive and believe in Jesus, great rewards can be had (received)

The gist of the sermon:
Many people outside the church ask, "Why are you going to church? What's in it?" They don't know what is going on.  You have to explain it to them.  Some will understand, and some will not.  But that is the way it goes.  It is recorded in the scripture that, to them, that believed, he gave them power. As Christians, with belief, we got power.  We got the power to pray and ask God to help us and others.  
Highlights of what this power can mean in our lives.
   
 *  Sickness doesn't have any power over us.
    
    *  The grave doesn't have power over us.
    
    *  We don't have any power on our own. Any power we own came from God on every hand.

   *  These powers do not come by just being a member of a local church. 
        It comes through believing and trusting in the living God.  
  
 *  The more you give, the more you will be blessed.  Giving isn't about just money.

So, as we go forth, let us thank God for another year and strive to enjoy the rewards of life while we are living here on earth
