Welcome to Youngsville Free Methodist Church

An enormous amount of material here, and no way to get through it all and do any justice to it.  So, I think that I will make a few notes on some of the significant points in each chapter.    Just enough to help me remember, and apply it to my life.

The great thing about reading the Bible is that as you read and ponder it, it speaks to you.   Listen closely as you read and reflect and God will direct your life

Today’s reading seemed long…I suspect that’s just because we are covering some events that I don’t want to think about.

What do we learn if we combine all three examples in today’s reading?

Every time I say “I’m not sure exactly how to interpret End Times prophecy” Someone will share with me what they believe, as if it’s the only possible way to see it.   It makes me laugh….I used to do the same thing.

I grew up listening to ministers preach a “pre-tribulation” rapture, and I have believed it for most of my life.   But recently as I read the Bible I see verses like the one here that have made me change my mind.

There are so many things going on this time of year, it’s hard to find time for everything.   In fact, it’s possible to become so focused on some good things that we actually lose our joy for the others.    Maybe that’s what happened here…

This is really something.  I think I was just talking about this passage yesterday in my blog.   And today, “boom” … here it is.

It’s early in the morning on a somewhat balmy day for November in Pennsylvania.  After reading both of today’s chapters I have just settled into my chair to write, with a steaming cup of coffee and the aroma of pumpkin spice creamer wafting through the air.    It doesn’t seem like Easter, but that’s where we are in the text.

When the rich man approaches Jesus to ask what He has to do to enter heaven, does Jesus begins by listing the commandments.   But did He just add another one?
