God's advice When We Are Attempted to Neglect Public Worship

\Thought for Today - October 25, 2023

God's Advice When We Are Tempted to Neglect Public Worship

By: Robert A. Searles

"Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.  Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do  any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant,nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within  thy gates: For in six days the Lord made heaven  and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the  sabbath day and hallowed it." Exodus  20: 8-11

"O come,  ler us sing  unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation,  Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.  For the Lord is a great God, and a great king above all gods. In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of  the hills is his also. The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our maker,For he is our God, and we are the people of  his pasture, and the sheep  of his hand. Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your  heart as in the provocation, and as in the day oif temptation in the  wilderness. " Psalm 95: 1-8  

"And they  continued  stedfastly in the apostles doctrine and fellowship, 2 and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and  signs were done by the apostles. And all that  believed were together, and had all things common; and sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart.  Praising God, and having favor with all the people.  And the Lord added to the church daily such s should be saved." Acts 2: 42-47

"And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works. Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves togeher, as the mnner of some is: but exhorting one another: and so much more, as  ye see the  day approaching." Acts 10: 24-25

The sabbath day was a special day decreed by God, to be observed or set aside as  a day of rest,  after having labored for the past six days, as a reminder that God had labored for six days to create the heaven and earth and all things, and rested from his labor, And said "it is good".  It was a day to be set aside  for all unnecessary work to cease, in order that all men and women, boys and girls,  and yes, even the work animals, and even he land would have an opportunity to regain strength and energy for the next week of labor.

It was also a day when people could  count  iheir blessings, and give thanks and remember the goodness  of God and praise him.

Today, we  Christians observe Sunday, ( the first day of the week) to reflect and mediate on the goodness and blessings of God. It was on the first day of the week that Jesus Christ appeared to the apostles and disciples  where they were gathered together  that first Sunday night, after God had raised him from the dead.

From that time forward Christians meet together on Sunday to worship , to greet one another, and find eternal rest for our  souls through the death and resurrection of Christ.

The assembling of ourselves together as Christians at least once a week should not be neglected if at all possible.

Article of the Day

Toothpaste

Though toothpaste as we know it today is only about a century old, dental hygiene has long concerned human beings. The ancient Greeks and Romans cleaned their teeth with abrasive mixtures using crushed bones and oyster shells, a far cry from the hydrogen peroxide-and-baking soda formulas of the 19th century. In 1892, American dentist Washington Sheffield became the first to sell toothpaste in a tube—today the standard in toothpaste packaging. What had inspired him to package it like that? More...

End of the Holy Roman Empire: Francis II Abdicates (1806)

Francis II, the last Holy Roman Emperor, came to power just before the outbreak of war with Napoleon's France. His armies were defeated, and he ceded the left bank of the Rhine to France in exchange for Venetia and Dalmatia. In 1798, he joined the Second Coalition against France, but he was again defeated. He eventually consented to the virtual dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire and assumed the title of emperor of Austria. Though he despised Napoleon, Francis allowed him to marry whom? More...

Alexander Fleming (1881)

Motivated by the devastating infections he saw in hospitals during World War I, Fleming, a Scottish bacteriologist, began searching for an effective antiseptic. In 1922, he discovered lysozyme, an antibacterial enzyme present in saliva and tears. In 1928, he isolated the substance penicillin, which became the first successful antibiotic for human bacterial infections. His work earned him a Nobel Prize and has forever changed modern medicine. In what accidental way did he discover penicillin? More... Discuss

Today's Holiday

Feast of the Transfiguration

As described in the first three Gospels, Jesus took his three closest disciples to a mountaintop to pray. While he was praying, his face shone like the sun and his garments became glistening white. Then a bright cloud came over them, and a voice from within the cloud said, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him." This feast is observed by Roman Catholics, Orthodox Christians, Lutherans, and Anglicans. The mountaintop on which the Transfiguration took place is traditionally believed to be Mount Tabor, a few miles east of Nazareth in Galilee. More... Discuss

Find Something Good To Say – Jane H. Young

“The heart of the wise instructs his mouth and adds persuasiveness to his lips. Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones,” Proverbs 16:23-24 NASB. 

If everyone would purposely say something nice to at least one person each day, I think the world would be a better place. Maybe we’d start a ‘pandemic of niceness.’ Lord only knows we could use it about now!  Try to make at least one person smile each day. You can speak just one kind word to anyone, it doesn’t matter who. Then count, if you dare, the amount of happiness just you could spread in a week, a year, a lifetime!

The lack of courtesy and abundance of impatience in today's world is out of control. So many seem full of some kind of rage — road rage, restaurant rage, standing in the grocery store waiting to check rage.  But there’s power in a loving touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, or an honest compliment. You could be the life-changing factor in someone’s day. “A man has joy in an apt answer, and how delightful is a timely word!” Proverbs 15:23, NASB.  Give it a try! Make an on-purpose decision today to be the person you would want to bump into if you were down.    

Go ahead, try it. Look in the mirror and say something nice to yourself.  Flash a great big happy smile. Now go out and share that with others like you mean it. Oh, what a blessing you are going to be. This is going to be a great day.

Prayer: Father as I continue on my day, show me who badly needs a kind word, a caring smile or a helping hand. Lord, help me get over myself and see the hurting world around me. I want to be that person that spreads happiness, peace, and joy throughout each day.

Jane lives in Myrtle Beach, SC. Her goal in life is to be a light for God in all she does. Contact

 Bless the Lord at All Times!

3 By: Robert A Searles

"Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name." Psalm 103: 1

4
    5 We who are Christians and know of the mercies of God ought to spend the 6 remainder of our lives blessing and praising the Lord for all his 7 goodness to us. How wonderful to know that he has forgiven us all our 8 iniquities, past, present, and future, and we will never again come unto 9 condemnation. How wonderful to know that our once sin sick soul has 10 been healed from the plague of the dominion and power of sin, and sin 11 has no more power and dominion over us to keep us in its' prison.

12
    13 The loving kindness and tender mercies of God has redeemed our life 14 from destruction. As the mother bird feeds its' young, God daily fills 15 our lives with good things. All things work together for good to them 16 that love God. I am so glad that God hath not dealt with me after my 17 sin, nor rewarded me according to my iniquities, but he sent his only 18 begotten son to die 19 in my place and take my sin upon himself and pay the 20 penalty for me, and as far as the east is from the west, so far hath he 21 removed our transgression from us.

22
    23 My friend, if you are not yet a Christian if you have not yet believed 24 in the only begotten son of God whom God sent to earth to manifest 25 himself to sinful man, and offer himself a sacrifice for the sin of the 26 world, I admonish you to receive him by faith, and ask him to forgive 27 your sin, and come live in your heart and give you eternal life. Then as 28 millions of others will testify along with the Psalmist, you wilt have 29 gladness and joy in your heart, and you will have reason to bless the 30 Lord all the day long with all that is within you.

Home at last!
4 By: Robert A. Searles

"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23

Home at last!

Last night as I  slept on my pillow,
I dreamed of a city so fair -
The streets were of gold,
the gates were of pearl;
The sea was like pure crystal glass.
No sickness, no pain, no sadness nor grief;
no death ,and no evil was there.

I dreamed I had entered that city,
and walked on those streets of pure gold;
I dreamed I had sailed on that pure crystal sea,
And I heard someone say: Home at last!

Only pure light and endless delight
are found in this city so fair.
Home at last! Home at last! I heard them all say.
We welcome you home from the wars.

Oh! sinner, why will you work for the one
who will pay you the wages of sin?
Death is the wages that Satan will pay
For all of your service to him.

When Jesus our savior is offering you
The gift of eternal life.
A place in that city I dreamed of last night;
A place with the father and home.

 Thought For Today - July 26, 2022
If someone should ask -  Who is God?  -  By: Robert A. Searles
      If someone should ask, who is God? "God is a spirit and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." John 4:24.
      God is an infinite, eternal being. the divine source of all things. He is the creator of the universe and everything in it. In the beginning, (which excludes the beginning of God, for he had no beginning and has no end), God said let there be, and it was so.
      " In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God called the light day, and the darkness he called night. And the evening and the morning were the first day." Genesis 1: 1-5.
      God is a person, and though he is invisible, he is the ultimate personality. God is love, there could be no love for one another upon earth, except that God has extended his attribute of love toward us. God is the supreme intelligence. God knows. There could be no knowledge of anything except that God has imputed that knowledge from himself to mankind.
       God sees all things, and God hears all things, and God is concerned and cares for all his creatures. "He who made the eye, can he not see? And he that made the ear, can he not hear?". God sees, God hears, and God knows, there is nothing hid from him. No man can hide from God, whether his deeds be good or evil. God is holy and all righteousness is in him. God hates sin and will eventually judge all sin.
      God has chosen to reveal himself to mankind in several different ways. He has revealed himself in nature, in his creation. "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handiwork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. there is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard." Psalm 19:1-3.
      There is no excuse for any intelligent being on earth not to know that God is, and that he is the creator of all things. God has revealed himself to mankind through the Holy Scriptures, The Holy Bible. "All scripture 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 perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." 2 Timothy 3:16,17.
      "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." 2 Peter 1:20,21
      If one would ask, who is God?, Then let him look to the heavens and observe and admire the glories of God's creation in the universe, in the stars and the galaxies. Let him look at the birds, the bees, the flowers, the animal kingdom and see the intelligent design of an intelligent creator.
      If one would ask: Who is God? Let him search the holy scriptures, the word of God, The bible, for therein God tells us who he is and what he requires of his creation. When God revealed himself to Moses on Mt Sini and gave him the ten commandments, he said to Moses: "I am that I am".
      God requires holiness, "Be ye holy as I am holy." God's requirement for the human race is that they have no other God beside him. "And thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
      God has finally revealed himself in the person and incarnation of his only begotten son, The Lord Jesus Christ. No person can know God, nor approach unto God except by and through him. "God, who at sundry times and in divers manner spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the majesty on high; Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they." Hebrews 1: 1-4.
      If one would ask: Who is God? Then let him lift up his eyes, and behold the only begotten son of God, the perfect lamb of God. God who is spirit, took upon himself a human body in the person of Jesus of Nazareth, who is the Christ, the Messiah. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men,. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." John 1: 1-5.
      All men and women, boys and girls, who have ever lived on earth are by nature sinners, having inherited the sin nature from our first parents, Adam and Eve. Because of this fact, the bible tells us that we are born estranged and separated from God, and consequently unless we are able to keep all the laws of God perfectly and attain unto his holiness, we are all condemned to be eternally separated from God and spend eternity in a literal Hell. No man ever lived on earth who could measure up to the holiness of God except the Son of God. Only in him is perfect sinlessness and holiness. The word of God the bible tells us that God in his love and mercy looked down upon the lost condition of mankind and that: "God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3: 16
.      Who then is God? God is our creator, our source, our beginning. God is God, the "Iam, that I am". He is the one that loves us with an everlasting love, and is not willing for any of us to perish and be separated from him forever. God never sent anyone to hell and he never will. If we should find ourselves eternally confined to the horrors of hell, it will be our own fault, because two thousand years ago, born in a stable in Bethlehem as prophesied by the prophet Micah, was Christ, the Perfect, sinless lamb of God, who came to take away the sin of the world, God has promised that whosoever will believe in him, and ask him for forgiveness, and receive him into their heart will be forgiven and will be given the gift of everlasting life.
      The scripture warns us: "Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward; How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?" Hebrews 2: 1-4.
       This then, should answer the question: Who is God? Before it is eternally too late won't you turn to Christ and accept him as your own personal Lord and Savior?

For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward; How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?" Hebrews 2: 1-4.
 
       This then, should answer the question - Who is God? Before it is eternally too late won't you turn to Christ and accept him as your own personal Lord and Savior if you have not already done so?

which Rodd Will You Take?

Thought For Today – July 21, 2022
Which Road Will You Take?  -  By: Robert A. Searles   

      There are two roads in life on which mankind may travel.  It is 2 impossible to travel on both roads at the same time, therefore one must 3 chose which road he will travel.  Both roads start from the  same place, 4 and it appears at first that they will both lead to the same 5 destination, for they seem to run parallel to one another for quite a 6 distance, but then very subtly they begin to separate and the distance 7 between them begins to widen, and after a while they have gone in 8 completely different directions.
     Jesus Christ our Lord and 9 Savior has warned us about choosing  the wrong road in life, and has 10 described these two roads for us.  He has pictured one as being a very 11 broad , well paved, well lighted, and easily traveled highway on which 12 it seems would be the most logical way to travel if one had alternate 13 ways of reaching the same destination.  This is the highway upon which 14 most people travel.  This is the most popular  highway for the 15 multitudes, but this road does not lead eventually to heaven, but it 16 will take you directly to hell. 

 Jesus said: "Enter ye in at the strait 17 gate for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leadeth to 18 destruction, and many there be that go in thereat Because strait is the 19 gait and narrow is the way. which  leadeth unto life, and few there be 20 that find it.” Matthew 7: 13, 14..
     If one would go to heaven, he 21 must choose the narrow road.  This is the unpopular way according to 22 the multitudes.  It is difficult to travel.  It has treacherous curves.  23 It is rocky.  It is a road that few people want to travel, but it is 24 the only  road that leads to heaven.
      “Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.” Luke 13: 24. 
     My friend, if you want to go to heaven and enjoy the riches of God's glory forever, then you must choose the right road.
     25 Jesus said, “I am the door”  he also said, “I am the way, the truth, 26 and the life.” 

 If you would have life eternal, you must choose to 27 believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and receive him as your Lord and 28 Savior, and by his grace, walk in the paths that he has trod.

PS; May God bless all my readers! God loves us all! Jesus Christ died for us, and rose again to save us! Praise God!Share this gospel truth with your friends and with the world. Amen!
