Pastor Caroline - Some Promises God Gives Us

 

Some Promises God Gives Us

 

In the early morning stillness

In the silence of the day,

As I look at God‘s creation

I can almost hear Him say –

“Good morning my child

Come and sit with me awhile

Pick up the Holy Bible

And I will make you smile.

As you read of all my promises

Just know they are all true,

I have written them down carefully

And they are meant just for you.

Pay very close attention

As I have structured your day from above,

I will walk closely beside you

Carrying you in mercy, grace and love”.

This was given to me just now as I sit with the Lord. Isn’t He wonderful?

 

A few of the promises of God that immediately come to mind are these and believe me these are just a few.

He promises to give me protection, provision, rest, to hear my prayers, and to strengthen me.

 

He promises to guide me, teach me, be with me in good times and hard times, to walk with me through the challenges of life.

 

He promises to take care of my daily needs, and to work out all things to His glory!! Wow this is a wonderful comfort, the comfort He promises.

 

There are so many promises of God that I cannot name each one. I recall Rev. Billy Graham saying once that there were over 7000 promises in the word of God. He said there were over 20 promises of God for every day in the year. So doing the math 20×365 days a year equals 7300. Now please do not ask me to list them for I surely will fall short.

 

God promises to never leave us or forsake us, He will fight our battles and always win. He is victorious and we live in that victory through Christ. He promises to love us, correct us, mould and shape us. To lay out plans for us to prosper and not bring us into disaster. Plans to bring about a good future for us.

 

God promises to rescue us, shelter us, keep us in times of trouble, remove our fear, build our faith, heal our sicknesses and redeem us. Oh the glory of the Lord is all over me as I write. Praise His holy wonderful and powerful name!

 

God promises to give us peace, hope, joy, wisdom and strength to face each new day – 365 days a year – every year until we are called home.

 

To end the story God also promises us, His Holy Spirit, His presence, forgiveness of our sins through Jesus, His Son, His power to strengthen us and His truth to set us free. He promises to one day open the doors of heaven and welcome us home. Our eternal life shall be with Him and we will learn more than we shall ever know here on earth.

 

In the early morning stillness, His promises are real and they are for us; to remind us He is in control of our day giving us assurance, mercy, grace and love. Now surely this will make you smile, and you will want to share the Good News with everyone you meet today.

 

Are you living in the promises of God?

Dr. Barclay with Something to Think About - YOUR NAME

 YOUR NAME

We all have a name and most try their best to protect the name they were given. After all it, at least to some extent, defines who you are, where you came from, and may, in some cases, even define your future. Not everyone, however, may be entirely happy with the name they were given and try to change it for something that they may feel is more suitable or advantages them to whatever they seek to do in life. Certain celebrities do this on a regular basis - in an effort to disguise their background or to make them seem more appealing to the public, they take “stage” names. Criminals often do it for more nefarious reasons.

God has a name for each of us as well, and since we are all equal in His eyes, it’s not surprising that He has the same name for all of us, at least initially. It’s also not the most flattering handle either.

When Jesus was in a synagogue in Nazareth He read to the people from the book of Isaiah and addressed those gathered in this manner:

The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me…

…To preach the gospel to the Poor.

(Luke 4:18)

Hence, He called the people by their first name: He called them poor.

In a similar manner, when Jesus was passing through Jericho, He came upon a tax collector named Zacchaeus. He said to Zacchaeus that He had to stay at his house and when Zacchaeus confessed as to what he had been doing and repented, offering to make restitution, Jesus said: “…‘Today salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham; for the Son of Man has come to seek and save that which was Lost.’” (Luke 19:9-10) 

In calling Zacchaeus lost, Christ gave us our middle name, for like Zacchaeus, we are all initially lost. So before we come to Christ, we are all initially poor and lost.

But there is still perhaps the most important name left; that being our family name, the name indicating to which family we all belong.

When, in His travels, Jesus had returned to His own city on one occasion, He came upon a tax collector named Matthew. He went into Matthew’s house and dined with him much to the dismay of the Pharisees who complained that Jesus was associating with such people. Jesus answered them this way:

“…‘Those who are well have no need of a physician,

but those who are sick.

But go and learn what this means:

‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ 

For I did not come to call the righteous,

but sinners, to repentance.’”

(Matthew 9:12-13)

He was talking to that group of people to which we all belong; that of the family of sinners. Only by recognizing from which we all come can we ever hope to have our name changed from that of Poor Lost Sinner to Rich, Righteous, and Redeemed. We grow by moving from the family from which we come to a new family. One in which we are RICH through “The unsearchable riches of Christ” and “the riches of His glory” (Ephesians 3:8&16); made RIGHTEOUS because “…He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.” (1 John 3:7); and given a new family name - REDEEMED: “And they shall call them The Holy People, The Redeemed of the Lord…” (Isaiah 62:12).

It’s not a bad deal really, being taken from a Poor Lost Sinner to that of being considered Rich, Righteous, Redeemed “children of God”(1 John 3:2). It really should give one something to think about.

Pastor Caroline - Love for Enemies

Pastor Caroline - A Heavy Heart

 

A Heavy Heart

 

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1 NKJV

 

Have you ever had a week where things just seemed to go wrong, or tasks did not get completed, or where everything just came completely derailed? Sure you have, and so have I. What does one do? Well I went to the word of God for direction, strength and peace. I so needed all three.

 

Sometimes things happen in life that takes our breath away or knocks us off our feet. But only for a short time because when we go to the Lord, He fills our lungs with precious air, (when seemingly we cannot breathe), and sets our feet on solid ground,(when we seem to be sinking). He is our refuge and strength. He is our reason for going forward and knowing He will work out all things gives us comfort. We must trust in Him and leave our burdens with Him.

 

As we take time to sit quietly before the Lord and look up, the heavens remind us of the glory of the Lord and His power. The troubled seas in our life are calmed by His mighty hand and in this we see His strength. Hopefully we have a fresh understanding that any troubles, concerns, any ups and downs we have in life; are never too much for Him to sort out.

 

So when a week, or day, seems to go wrong, give it all to Him and soon all things shall be in order according to His will. Thank you Lord, you are indeed our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

 

Now may I thank you Lord in advance, for every good and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. James Chapter 1 Verse 17 NKJV.

My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth. Psalm 121:1 (in part).

 

When your heart is heavy, go to the Lord. Give thanks to God who is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Then your day will be in His Almighty hands and your heaviness shall be exchanged for His peace. This is a very good place to be, in His hands, at peace!

 

How do I know? I know because it has been proven to me over and over again. I give all thanks to Him who lifts my heavy heart, giving me peace I cannot explain, but am ever so grateful for!

Dr. Barclay with Something to Think About - CONDITIONING

 CONDITIONING

Ivan Pavlov was a Russian physiologist who lived from 1849 to 1936*. He worked with dogs and has been credited with making a discovery which has essentially changed the course of behavioural science. This discovery came about as result of a rather simple experiment. He had noticed that dogs salivate when food is brought to them. He also noted that these same dogs would salivate excessively when the handler would come in, even if they had no food with them. And so, he devised an experiment: a bell would be rung just before the dog was fed and after a while, it came to be that the dog would salivate when the bell was rung even if no food was there. This became the classical experiment to demonstrate what is now known as a conditioned response to an associated stimulus, a physiological response that requires no formal learning.

This is a rather simplified explanation of what is called classical conditioning: a physiological response to an external stimuli and something which we, in fact, experience everyday. Certain odours or smells may turn our taste buds on or off, certain fragrances may tingle our emotions, and places or music can rekindle memories. In fact, this is in large part the basis for PTSD, where certain sounds or events can be associated with unpleasant happenings in the past.

In the same way, God has used events throughout history, and recorded them in the Bible, to condition us as to what He had in mind for us. In Genesis, with the first act of disobedience, God caused the death of an animal and “…made tunics of skin, and clothed [Adam and Eve]” (Genesis 3:21), thus covering their nakedness and sin.

This was to be the start of a long process of conditioning, hopefully to make us understand the fullness of what God was going to do. In Exodus, He told the Hebrew people to take a lamb “without blemish”and then “kill it at twilight”(Exodus 12:5&6) on the fourteen day of the month. After which they were to “…take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and lintel of the houses…” and “…eat the flesh on that night, roasted in fire…” (Exodus 12:7&8). This time another animal, a perfect lamb, was to be sacrificed and the flesh consumed to cover the Hebrew people from the death promised by God that night.

The book of Leviticus relates in detail the regulations regarding animal sacrifices that were put in place by God and which the Hebrew people were to follow. According to the Bible, these instructions were to be followed precisely if the sacrifice were to be acceptable and suitable to cover the transgressions of the people and those of the priest himself. In addition to being covered, a person’s sin could also be carried away by the scapegoat. “Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, confess over it all the iniquities of the children of Israel…putting them on the head of the goat, and shall send it away into the wilderness…” (Leviticus 16:21).

But in spite of all these instructions and regulations, it appears that God, after all, was not that interested in animal sacrifices. In Isaiah it is stated that the Lord:

“…had enough of burnt offerings of rams

and the fat of fed cattle.

I do not delight in the blood of bulls

Or of lambs or goats.”

“Bring no more futile sacrifices…”

“…make yourselves clean

[and] cease to do evil,”

(Isaiah 1:11,13,16).

So, if God really was not interested in animal sacrifice, then why go to such lengths to install it into the Hebrew people? It was a way to condition them to the ultimate sacrifice that was to come. When Jesus died on the cross, He not only covered our sin but took it away completely when He was resurrected and departed for heaven. Up to that time, animal sacrifice was used to temporally cover the sin of man and to condition us to an unfortunate reality: innocent blood had to be spilled to pay for our transgressions if we were to be spared the penalty of death. So God, from the very start, laid the groundwork to prepare man and to condition him for what would be ultimately be needed to save mankind from their actions. Many still deny, however, that anything is needed to counteract man’s iniquity or, as continues in some religions, still rely on the old animal sacrifices.

It seems as if canines may understand more about classical conditioning than does man. It certainly gives one something to think about.

Pastor Caroline - My Children - Father's Day 2022

Pastor Caroline - Seven Wonders of the World

 

Seven Wonders of the World


The teacher asked her students to make a list of the seven natural wonders of the world. The class set to work on the project for quite a while, and as time wore on some of the students finished the list. The teacher said the children could go outside for recess as each one finished. Eventually, only one little girl was left still at her desk writing. Then she smiled, wrote something, and jumped up, joyfully announcing that she was done and skipped happily out to play with the others. The teacher picked up the paper and read the following;
(1) Seeing
(2) Hearing
(3) Tasting
(4) Touching
(5) Running
(6) Laughing
(7) Loving

I personally would say this little girl appreciated the God-given gifts in her life.

This story is found in a book called Stories for a Faithful Heart containing over 100 messages to touch your soul, and compiled by Alice Gray. The title of the story I share with you today is Seven Wonders of the World and the above story is written on page 165 of the book I mentioned and it says Author Unknown.

I thought it was and is a lovely story and it seems to me this little girl was sharing the wonders of God, because all the wonders she wrote, are gifts from God. Seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, running, laughing and loving are things we often take for granted. To enjoy each wonder – or gift – in our day, to me is a wonderful reflection of how much God loves us. He gives us God given gifts.

In just the next few moments after I sent the book down, I heard in my head, seven things we can keep in mind when thinking about our God.
Thanks – Psalm 136:1
Faith – Hebrews 11:1
Hope- Jeremiah 29:11
Prayer - Philippians 4:6
Strength- Philippians 4:13
Love- 1 Timothy 1:14 and John 3:16 & 17
Rejoice- Psalm 118:24

When we have God in our lives, the God of love, we certainly want to give thanks. Our faith in Him carries us through the trials of life. Hope allows us to look forward believing all things are possible. To pray is to release all the thoughts we carry and bring them to our Heavenly Father. We talk to God and in doing so come closer to Him every day. His strength becomes our strength and His peace surrounds us and we become stronger still.

The love of God draws us close to Him, sustains us every day and keeps us until the day we go to be with Him forever through His gift of salvation. We rejoice every day in knowing how much He loves us.

Just like the little girl, I am in awe of the wonders God gives me every day.  Seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, running, laughing, and loving. As a mature woman in years, I am blessed by the gifts I live in every day.  Did you get that? I live in these gifts everyday along with thanks, faith, hope, prayer, strength, love and rejoice. To combine all 14 off these I must say I am overwhelmed by the goodness in my life and I hope you are as well.

Have a very blessed day in Jesus.

Dr. Barclay with Something to Think About - FAITH 2

 FAITH 2

There is a story in the Book of Joshua about a battle between the Israelites and the Amorites. In it, Joshua and his army were fighting, and prevailing over, the Amorites. However, even with their successes Joshua prayed and great hailstones came down from the sky, slaying many of their enemies. Joshua then became even more bold and “…spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel:

Sun, stand still over Gibeon;

And Moon, in the valley of Aijalon.

So the sun stool still,

And the moon stopped,

Till the people had revenge

Upon their enemies…”

(Joshua 10:12-13)

Such an event is so far outside our experience that many consider it to be no more than a myth; a story that really has no basis in reality. If that is the case, then how much of the remainder of the Bible might be no more than myth as well? This is the argument that some put forward while trying to deny the factuality of the Bible. However, when you really consider it all, is it any more difficult to understand how God could cause the sun to stand still than to accept that the entire universe, with its trillions of galaxies, each with billions of stars, could have developed from a singularity the size of a dot and in an instant?

That singularity is the scientific explanation for the Big Bang Theory. But does it not take just as much faith to accept and believe such an explanation as it does to believe that a loving God could create what we see and experience by His word? It requires faith to believe in either of the two scenarios presented above but only one is apparently given any credence by science and, therefore, only one is widely proclaimed today. Faith, however, is essential to both and when one examines all the evidence, it’s at least as easy to believe the universe was created by God instead of just exploding into existence by accident. 

One must have faith in this existence. Faith in a system by which everything just happens. We either live, die, and cease to exist in a godless vacuum, or we exist in a world and universe that were created by a living God who can cause, by His Word, everything to happen. He, therefore, can cause the sun to stand still as well as the other miracles recorded in the Bible - “For with God nothing will be impossible” (Luke 1:37).

If nothing is impossible, then causing great hailstones to fall from the sky or the sun to appear to cease movement should be only child’s play to such a God. Certainly it would take little for Him to create a persona and come to earth as a human (if He so inclined to do so), as a means to reconcile Himself with us. To say He could not, or would not, do so means that we are putting a limit on what He is capable of. 

To live, to die, and to cease to exist, therefore, can become to live, to die, and to live again forever if we accept that which God puts forth in the Bible. He, who created and controls all, came to earth in such a way (and for the purpose of) showing us that He still cares for us, even in our general disbelief. We, thus, must have the faith to believe that the stories and miracles reported in the Bible are true and the faith to accept as fact that Jesus came to earth in love, if we are to reap the promises that He made to us. We must keep the faith for “…without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6).

Faith in a God who can move mountains, cause the sun to cease movement, and allows us to have life eternal; it’s something we should always pray for and think about. 

Pastor Caroline - When God Speaks

Pastor Caroline - A Prayer for Help

 

A Prayer for Help

 

I would like to share with you today Psalm 13. Six verses that teach us much. I am using the Good News Bible.

(1) How much longer will you forget me, Lord?

Forever?

How much longer will you hide yourself from me?

(2) How long must I endure trouble?

How long will sorrow fill my heart day and night?

How long will my enemies triumph over me?

 

(3) Look at me, O Lord my God, and answer me.

Restore my strength, don’t let me die.

(4) Don’t let my enemies say, “We have defeated him.”

Don’t let them gloat over my downfall.

 

(5) I rely on your constant love; I will be glad, because you will rescue me.

(6) I will sing to you, O Lord, because you have been good to me.

 

We are told that David wrote this Psalm.  At this time he was King David. Even he asked straight forward questions to God and this teaches us that we can bring our honest, hard questions to the Father and not worry that He will cast us out for asking. Sometimes in today’s world, even as in King David’s time, life was and is, tough. Many things happen and we do not have the reasoning or answers as to why. Trouble comes our way and we must learn to endure. We feel sorrow and our heart breaks, however, we know God will send us comfort and we will make it through.

 

Sometimes we think God is not listening to our prayers, or that He has turned away from us. Or He is hiding – but He is not. King David asks, how much longer will you hide yourself from me? Don’t we feel like that sometimes? Then we cry out to God, “Where are you?; Do you see what I’m going through?; Do You care?” It is OK to ask these questions, but remember, as we wait for answers, we must ask God to give us strength and patience in the waiting. Ask Him to be with us because it is not always easy to endure alone. He will be there!!

 

In life here on earth we are not meant to have all the answers, or to be able to explain everything that happens. We have just had 2 1/4 years of Covid and still it is not over, now Monkey Pox, rising costs of oil, gas, food, housing and medication. We see news reports of senseless killings, unnecessary war, evacuation of thousands upon thousands from their homelands, housing shortages, and so much more. When will all of this madness stop? Well my friends, I cannot give an answer. However, I will share King David’s declaration found in verses five and six:

(5) I rely on your constant love; I will be glad, because you will rescue me.

(6) I will sing to you, O Lord, because you have been good to me.

This is so powerful!

 

Our prayer for help should always end with thanks. Thank you Lord that we can rely on Your constant love. Thank you Lord for we know You will rescue us. We sing our praises to You because You are so very good to us. Thank you for answered prayer in and through our hardships and trials of life, as we look forward to being with You in heaven. Thank you for guidance, direction, provision and protection. We give all glory to You. We shall do as King David did; ask, believe and receive. And sing unto you, Almighty God!

 

Please watch Thursday for Peter’s Picks and Mike’s writing and Friday for Pastor Todd‘s message.

Have a great week.

Dr. Barclay with Something to Think About - WORD OF GOD

 WORD OF GOD

The Bible, as a whole, is considered to be the Word of God. In essence it communicates the thoughts, aka wishes and guidance, of God to mankind. In the Old Testament, this often reflected His authority and His covenants with His people. His covenant with Abraham was marked by the rite of circumcision as seen in Genesis 17:10 -  “This is My covenant which you shall keep…Every male child shall be circumcised…” This was taken very seriously by the Hebrew people.  When they came out of Egypt and traversed the wilderness, Joshua circumcised all the males who had been born during that journey for none of them had previously been done. 

It is even reported that Moses, who had taken a Midian - not a Hebrew - woman to be his wife, was confronted by God over this ritual. He had not circumcised his own son and was threatened with death as a result during his journey to Egypt - “And it came to pass on the way, at the encampment, that the Lord met him, and sought to kill him” (Exodus 4:24). But, after Zipporah, his wife, circumcised their son, everything seemed to be all right and Moses continued on toward Egypt.

In the New Testament, God’s Word is more for showing direction and discernment than for pure authority and this is demonstrated though the new covenant conveyed by Jesus. In fact, the Bible tells us that the Word of God illustrates at least eight features.*

By it we are converted. 

“The Law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul…”

(Psalm 19:7)

“…the holy scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith…”

(2 Timothy 3:15)

By it we are convicted.

“All Scripture is given by the inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”

(2 Timothy 3:16)

By it we are cleansed

“How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your Word” 

(Psalm 119:9)

By it we are comforted

“For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.” 

(Romans 15:4)

By it we are counselled

The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes; the fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. 

(Psalm 19:7-9)

By it we are corrected

All Scriptures is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. 

(2 Timothy 3:16-17)

By it we can have confidence

“In the fear of the Lord there is strong confidence, and His children will have a place of refuge.” (Proverbs 14:26)

“Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise…”

(Hebrews 10:35-36)

By it we can have courage

“Be strong and of good courage, do not fear or be afraid…for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you”

(Deuteronomy 31:6)

“But Jesus immediately said to them: ‘Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.’”

(Matthew 14:27 NIV)

Since Jesus is the Word “…[who] became flesh and dwelt among us…” (John 1:14) we can have all of the above through Him if we are only willing to accept Him at His Word.

It’s really something to think about.

*Adapted in part from Romans Study Guide part 1 pg 91-92 by Dr. David Jeremiah 

Pastor Caroline - The Holy Spirit - Pentecost Sunday

Pastor Caroline - I Met a Man

 

I Met a Man

 

Psalm 51 verse 17 in the Good News Bible tells us;

(17) My sacrifice is a humble spirit, O God; you will not reject a humble and repentant heart.

 

I once met a man who told me, he could never go to heaven. His eyes were vacant, his voice was hollow and his body lacked life. I asked him why he was so down on himself, and he said, life really isn’t worth living, every day is the same old, same old. He did not look to the future he said because it constantly repeated his past. His past was horrific, he lied, cheated, stole and almost killed a man, he said.  I was a failure as a son, brother, husband and father he continued. How can someone like me ever expect to go to heaven? If I ever did anything good for someone I looked for payment for it. I remember as a boy I once brought flowers to a lady on our street because she was sick. She was a nice old lady who made cookies for us kids. I really wanted to make her feel good, and I did, she loved the flowers, however; I stole them from a graveyard. Now I think to myself, how awful. I live from day to day getting by the best way I know how. As I grow older I try now to do nice things for people but; too little too late as they say. God certainly is not waiting for me. He stopped talking as he waited for my response.

 

Quickly I said to him, oh but He is!! Then I took some time to tell him about the Lord and His love. I told him about A Man, named Jesus.

I shared with him Psalm 57 verse 17 and I told him if he goes to God with a humble spirit, that God will not reject him, especially when he repents before the Lord. God loves when we come to Him telling Him we realize how wrong we have been and still are. How we know we cannot do things on our own. He loves when we become dependent on Him and He rejoices when we realize and confess our need of Him.  He sees the brokenness in us and longs to make us whole. I told him God will create in him a new heart and I showed him in this very psalm where we are told about King David crying out to God with these words in verse 10

(10) Create a pure heart in me, O God, and put a new and loyal spirit in me.

 

God changed King David who certainly had a past that was not honouring to the Lord for sure, and he can change you.

When we come to God with a repentant heart and ask for forgiveness God is faithful to His word and He forgives us of our sin. In our opening scripture today we are reminded in verse 17 it says, in part;

…You will not reject a humble and repentant heart.

We must trust in God, and ask Him to change our heart and to put His heart into us. He will do that and we will be transformed, living the life He wants for us.

 

So today, just as I told that man, and am now sharing with you; turn all your past over to God and ask Him to forgive every sin, and accept His forgiveness. It is important to accept His gift of forgiveness, and soon you will see a changed you. Day by day you will grow in His love and soon you will exhibit His love and His nature and people will see a change in you. Then you can give a testimony to those you meet and this is how we share the gospel and the love of Christ.

 

Ask God to be with you today and all your tomorrows. He will show you His ways and day by day you can and will be more like Him. Remember every day to give praise, glory and honour unto the Lord who created you and loves you beyond measure.

He certainly is waiting for each and every one of us to one day; come home.

 

In this last years of this man’s life he did change because He accepted Jesus, and became a very kind, good and giving person. I believe today he resides in heaven with the Lord who brought beauty into his life and showed him how to truly live.

 

I pray today, you can say, I met a man – His name is Jesus. I accepted Him in my heart and I have never been the same. Since I met the Lord my life is changed and to Him I give all thanks for everything He has done for me. Jesus, my Lord and Savior.

My all in All.

 

Be sure to tell everyone about this man named Jesus!
