Jesus Is Lord!

Perhaps now, more than ever of late, we need to be studying the Word of God and seeking His direction for our lives, our families, our churches, and our ministry in this world. To this end, please put forth every effort to be faithfully committed to your local church family. If you're in our area, please consider joining us every time the church is open.
Are you unsure of the future of the U.S. and local economy? Do you fear the recession possibly returning? How about the wars and rumors of wars? Do they make you wonder if there will ever be peace? If this is how you are feeling, then you need to hear, believe, and act on the Good News, the Gospel of Jesus Christ! If you are only hearing the bad news, gloomy and despairing forecasts, you may see yourself in these words of Jesus, "...men fainting from fear and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world..." (Luke 21:26) In light of the days in which we are living, please follow this biblical imperative, "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more, as you see the day drawing near." (Hebrews 10:23-25) In other words, continue to go to church! Worship! Give! Learn! Witness! However, you may have a question here: "Which church should I attend?" I would encourage you to find a church that believes the whole Bible to be the inspired, infallible, inerrant Word of God; that you see the church trying to live out the Word of God in the lives of its people; that the church is missions minded, both at home and abroad; that the church is accountable, open and honest in the way it deals with finances. That is the kind of church that Belgrade Christian Assembly aspires to be.

One of the most critical issues we are facing in our lifetime is that of affirming the value of every human life. Once conception has taken place, we affirm that every fertilized egg is a person, who, the Bible teaches, is made in the image of God (Genesis 1:26). We also believe that, in the words of our Declaration of Independence, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal , that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." (special emphasis mine)

Would you please earnestly pray that the laws in our land would be changed to protect the life of the unborn from conception until birth? Pray that the Lord will change the hearts of women and men who are considering aborting their children. Pray that hurting, wounded women and men, damaged by their decisions to abort, may turn to Christ in repentance and for forgiveness.

Recently Kermit Gosnell, an abortion practitioner in the Philadelphia area, was convicted of murdering children, on at least 3 counts. He murdered these children after their botched abortions. Unbelievably, the Colorado state legislature, recently passed House Bill 1154, that would ban criminal charges from being levied on abortionists that killed women. In this state of Colorado, where abortion is legal during all stages of pregnancy, the state legislature has approved a bill that would allow monsters like Kermit Gosnell to practice his human butchery without fear of criminal charges! Please pray that all such evil acts would be exposed, sinners convicted by the Holy Spirit of their sin and brought to true repentance. Only then may they turn to the Lord Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sin.
