Welcome

 

Welcome to the Berea church of Christ. We hope you will be blessed by your visit with us. We believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God and that it is our sure guide in all aspects of life. It is our goal to worship as directed by God’s Word and to teach and obey the will of God as revealed in the Bible.

So Much To Do

So much to do, so little time to do it. Competing interests vie for our time, making us feel like we’re in a pressure cooker. Even retired folks find their schedules too full.

 

Jesus, too, felt the pressure of time. “I must work the works of Him Who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work” (John 9:4). In John 7, the Feast of Tabernacles occurred; this would have been sometime in October. About six months later, in April, Jesus would be crucified. Already the Jews were indicating their willingness to use force against Him; once they had sent their officers to arrest Him (7:32), while later they had tried to stone Him (8:59). Though these attempts failed, Jesus knew that the dark night was rapidly approaching. Anything He would accomplish regarding His earthly ministry must be done right away.

 

Note that Jesus understood what was really important: “the works of Him Who sent Me.” If you were to evaluate the way you’ve spent your life up to now, what would you say? Few would cry out, “Oh, how I wish I’d spent more time at my job!” We probably wouldn’t lament, “If only I’d watched more TV!” More likely we would bemoan that we didn’t spend more time with our spouses and children/grandchildren. We would regret neglecting Bible study, prayer, and church attendance. And, of course, we would wish we had taken the time to help that friend or neighbor come to know Christ.

 

Jesus knew that the time to work for the Father is now. As my folks used to say, “Make hay while the sun shines!” No matter how young or old we may be, the night is coming for us, too. Let’s work while it is day!

 

And that brings up another point: Work lasts until the night comes. Jesus was busy for the Father right up until the very end. Not until the very night before His crucifixion did Jesus say, “I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do” (John 17:4). Retirement from our employment is fine, but the work of God is a different matter. God’s retirement plan is truly “out of this world”!

 

Let’s realize what is really important. Let’s work for the Father now. And let’s keep working until He says it’s time to quit! ~Joe Slater

 

THOUGHT OF THE DAY 🤔  There is no better time to put your faith in God than now, when the men that rule over you do not care about the common man
