Can you live with the realization that you can't know everything you would like to know? Seeing through the glass darkly shows us we have need, more to learn, we realize we don't know it all. We will never come to a point where we will know it all.

"Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:3. If you have ever had any questions about this scripture, this is the sermon for you.

Such a great sermon on the Feast of Trumpets. Using the analogy of holding court puts many things about this important day in a new light. Consider Egypt as a type of sin and Pharoah as a type of Satan. Moses and Aaron would be God's witnesses that bear testimony.

Receptivity and response cultivate a responsible creation. You can't give what cannot be received. We must show a profit or an increase or we are an unprofitable servant. God must see enough of himself reflected back or else we are an unprofitable servant.

1 Peter 4:19, "Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator." We must be set on a course of well doing, coming out of sin. Without the faithfulness of God we are doomed.

Now in this message we are getting to the meat of the matter on this last Day of Unleavened Bread.

Repentance is required for the contract of baptism to be valid. It is impossible to make sin work. John the baptizer showed the absolute need for repentance.

by Rick Beam

Only God's way truly works. Only through baptism do we have an opportunity in Christ. You cannot make sin work. Only God can write His character on us. Through the covenant of baptism we belong to Christ. Whatever belongs to God, He will take through eternity with Him.
