Pastor's Message

By Pastor Bruce Moore

A Legend for Soul Winners

Once upon a time,so the legend goes, three horsemen were riding in the darkness across the desert. As they crossed the dry bed of a river about midnight, a commanding voice called to them: HALT!

They obeyed.

They were told to dismount, pick up a handful of pebbles, put them into their pockets, and remount.

Again they obeyed.

As they were about to continue their journey, they heard the voice again: "You have done as I commanded. At sunrise tomorrow you will be both glad and sorry."

Mystified, the three men rode on.

At sunrise they took the pebbles out of their pockets and looked at them. To their amazement, they saw diamonds, rubies, and other precious gems glistening in the morning sun.

They were both glad and sorry!

Glad they had taken some . . .

Sorry they hadn't taken more!

And that will be the story of all believers.

At the coming of the Son, we shall be both glad and sorry.

Glad for those we have pointed to heaven . . . Sorry that we did not do more!!

Late this month we will be starting an exciting Revelation Seminar that will begin August 30. You can find more details inside.

There will be two sessions available—a morning and evening class. Each will be held in the Seminar room and have limited seating.

Be intentional about inviting your friends. Lift them up now in prayer. This is a program they will enjoy!

The real question is...when the Son arrives, how many jewels will there be?
