Awesome service this week, had a few guests from different cities and states, It was nice to have them join us. Big day for three young adults today, Oleg, Igor, and Ilya. They officially completed Sunday School and accepted as the newest members into our youth team. Congratulations guys, may God bless you abundantly and we hope that you will join us in all of our events and ministry with all your talents and capabilities. Theme of today's service was "witnessing to others" After uplifting worship, members of the youth performed a small skit which showed how some Christians in life don't notice the people who are right next to them and that those people are searching for the word of God, The skit was about two gentlemen who meet on a bench and start a discussion about there time in bible school and what they have been doing since, next to them sat a individual who was not christian and became interested in the subject of God. After asking the two people to tell her more, they both made up an excuse about having to leave and did not talk to her. Skit brought us to the topic of focusing on people around us who may be seeking the word of God. Alex Klyuchits stated that at times we get in a comfort zone and become this circle of individuals who only communicate within the group and dont pay much attention to surrounding people outside the realm of that circle. Introducing next speaker Paul Klimchuk who will assist in teaching what may be some of the ways one could talk to a non-believer and what are some of the questions that may come up when telling some one about the Lord. Who made God? A: he was always there, God is like space, there is no end to it, our mind is programed to always have an end or a wall that becomes the finishing destination, however, God has no end and our mind has a hard time comprehending that information. Heaven & Hell -How do you know it exists? A: Bible tells us that A: If God & Devil exist then there must be heaven & hell A: Good & Bad people must end up somewhere in the end, something must separate them. Something beneficial one can say when asked about hell is: What happens if there is a hell, you may think right now that there is no hell or that there is no proof of hell, but what if in the end there really is hell, are you ready to face that? Hell was created for devil not people,so there is no reason why anyone should end up there, you can find salvation and spend eternity in an amazingly beautiful and peaceful place,,,,let me tell you more about that. This is a good way to start talking to some one about God and heaven. Peter Klimchuk: How do people surrounding you know that you are a christian? Most common way people should realize that you are a christian is by the way you serve others and show Gods love through that service, helping others in anyway you can to show that love that God has shown you. Topic to be continued at next weeks service........ Homework assignment: Everyone to bring one question that you have been asked by a non-believer about Christianity Come visit us next week! |
