Dear Brethren,

 I trust that this email meets you well. Here we are in the last few days of 2023. Our God is good and He is worthy of our praise forever!

 Please find attached, the Bible Study Outline for the last Sunday of 2023 titled, “Come, Lord Jesus”, with scriptural reference from Revelation 22:1-21. Such an apt lesson as we come to the end of our Quarter Theme, “The Urgency of the Last Days”. How deep is the Father’s love for us, that as He penned down His final words in the Holy Scriptures, it was to remind us that Jesus is coming again soon, so that we can ENSURE that we and our friends, and our neighbors and all our loved ones are ready. 

 Key Learning Points: 

          1. What rapture awaits us when Jesus comes: We will finally get to see God face to           face and bask in the radiance of His glory. Now, that’s something worth                    

          looking forward to. (V. 3-5)

2. “Jesus is coming” is a trustworthy prophecy. Believers should not waver through unbelief and be dulled into apathy or disobedience. (V.6-7; 12-14)

3. Those who await His coming should make every effort to invite others in. (V. 17, 20).

Tell somebody today…. JESUS IS COMING SOON. Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus!

Here’s wishing you and yours, a JOYOUS 2024 in advance.

 Yours in Christ,

Good Evening Brethren,

Please find attached, this Sunday’s Bible Study Outline on the topic, “The Season of the Lord’s Patience“.

I recall my days as a young Christian, being fired up about the Lord’s “imminent” return and telling anyone who would listen about the need for them to “clean up their act” so that they would make heaven. It’s been over 3 decades now, and at several points over the years, I found myself wondering why the Lord had not yet come. And then I happened upon this scripture in 2 Peter 3:1-18. It was then that I realized that while I thought I was waiting for God, He was actually waiting for me… to be a light in the darkness of this world, to win souls for Him, and to live out His life in my life.

The Key Learning Points from the passage are as follows: 

1. God’s patience should not be taken for granted. God is being patient to give us time to repent and align ourselves to His purposes (v. 8-9).
2. Every day that God delays His coming is a window of opportunity for us to grow in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and become who HE wants us to be – His holy people. (v.10-13, 15, 18)
3. Becoming who God wants us to be is not going to be achieved on the bed of indifference or unseriousness. Rather, it requires that we each do our very best to be pure and faultless in God’s sight, not in man’s sight. (v.14-16) 

May the grace of God abound to us all and cause us to align our lives to His divine purpose in our last “few days” on this side of eternity, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Have a blessed evening!

Good Evening Brethren,

We thank God for the end of another work week. 

Please find attached the outline for this Sunday’s Bible study on “The Day of the Lord”.

Key Learning Points:

1. The day of the Lord will come unexpectedly and suddenly as a thief in the night, but it should not be a surprise to believers or a concern, because we are sons of light not of darkness (1 Thessalonians 5: 1-2).
2. Believers must guard against being lulled into sleep by the pursuit of peace and security in the world, and by all the revelries going on. Rather, they must prepare for the day of the Lord by being watchful, sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and the helmet which is the hope of salvation (1 Thessalonians 5: 3-8).
3. We must encourage one another daily as we see the Day approaching especially since we already know where we stand on that day. By so doing, each person will be strong in faith to wait for that day (Hebrews 10: 24-25; 1 Thessalonians 5: 9-11).

May we live in the consciousness of Christ’s return, and be filled with expectation and excitement .

See you on Sunday by God’s grace!
