3 new comers and the 2 AdamsEvery Thursday's afternoon we will meet at our place of worship to meet new comers. Since we started this approach some months back, we have seen many people come by for a chat or discussion. In many occasions, we have opportunity to share with the folks here about the great truth from God. Thus many wonderful discussions came about. As each individual share their stories, I benefited much from them. There will always be cultural lessons to learn or aspects of an individual that is so personal. Stories are great because it paints the living experienced of an individual and we enter into their world. All kinds of feeling and emotions evolved as we hear their stories. Their stories have filled-in the puzzles in my life as our life in so many ways, is a completing the 'puzzle of our life'. Last Thursday, three unique individual came to our get together. One is a cook, the other is a medium and the 3rd is a free- lancer but had suffered under police custody. I listened to their personal stories and their knowledge of any things under the sun. They were all very fascinating. Of course, the purpose of our get together is focus on the truth of the Bible and how they have benefited us. Jesus Christ son of the living God and Saviour of the world! He is the way, the truth and the life! Over the last two Sundays, I started to preach and teach about the first Adam who committed disobedience towards God and the outcome was sin and the impact of that one act on all human race.But, the wonderful news was the 2nd Adam came who is the Son of the Living God, the one who came from heaven to save us from eternal damnation. I read through Romans 5:12-21, 6:23, 3:21-24, Ephesians 2: 8-10, Hebrews 10: 8-10, 1Corinthians 15: 20-22,45 -49. Now you can understand why I have to take two weeks to cover such a topic. It has been great over the last 2 weeks. Reaching out with words of truth and listening to words that discribed lives. Ultimately, the true Word of God i.e Jesus Christ sets life free!
