Weekly Words of Instruction

If the dead could send a message to the living, it would be "There is a heaven and hell, so get your souls right with God!" (Luke 16:27–28). Preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ is the message that will save all men from hell, for it is the power of God unto salvation (Romans 1:16, 1 Corinthians 1:18–21, 1 Cor. 15:2). Teaching mankind how to be saved from their sins is the greatest work in the world, but it is also the most despised work in the world because most people have no love for the Lord (John 3:19–21, Rom. 10:16, Matthew 7:13–14). This is a pity because men need Jesus, and if they refuse to obey him, where Jesus will be in the hereafter, those men cannot come (John 8:21).

The woman who is a full-time homemaker does a wonderful job, and a job that doesn't get the credit it deserves at times because jobs paying big bucks overshadow this humble work. Money isn't everything, for there are some values that the mighty dollar cannot achieve (1 Timothy 6:6–10). One can be making $100,000 a year, and if the home isn't comfortable and the husband and children taken care of, what good is that? A loving home is a wonderful comfort to walk into, so think about that.

Hope to hear from you or to see you at the services.
