Blessed Return

Welcome Back!
Greetings Brothers and Sisters,
Our first full fledged gathering this last Saturday, was absolutely wonderful. The Lord has greatly blessed us with His presence, and an abundance of people who came to gather. How great indeed is the Lord our God, how great indeed. We began our evening with our worship team, lead by brother Tom, and as always a great selection of music in which to worship by. Let's not forget though, worship is not merely music, it is through study of His Word, living for Jesus daily, and of course our testimony.
Each one of us has a beautiful testimony, and it is unique to each of us as well. God is so involved in our lives from beginning to end, and He walks us through every step of the road in our life, with each step comes a variety of experiences in our life. Tonight, we were graced to hear the testimony of a young brother who comes from the dream center of alaska. The dream center is a program that aims to help young men and women in discipleship and equipping them to lead a purposeful, successful life. We encourage you to visit their website at http://www.dreamceterak.org. They offer a great deal of tools that many of us, at certain points in our lives, need. And just like that, our testimony of the Grace of God increases. May our proclamation of the mighty works of God in our lives ever increase.
Tonight's sermon covered the area of 1 Tim verse 12 thru 18, and was faithfully presented by Pastor Scott. Tonight we were reminded that everyone, no matter how long they have been saved, needs to stay true to the Word of God. We must faithfully guard His Word in our Hearts, minister it truthfully, and correct those who teach falsely. The Apostle Paul was reminding Timothy of just this. We also see that Paul had turned Hymenaeus and Alexander over to Satan, not for their destruction but that they would be taught not to blaspheme. Paul begin in verse 12 reminding Timothy of his own testimony, regarding how even paul was formerly a blasphemer, persecutor and violent aggressor. Then we see how God had shown Paul mercy, which greatly magnifies the Glory of God so much so. We are reminded of this, because Paul being a pharisee, thought he was doing the Lord's work, yet we see he was a false teacher until his conversion. Let me just say this brothers, stay true in worship to God in His Word, submit to God and you see be greatly protected by His word. Listen to testimony given in the bible, hear testimony from fellow brothers and sisters, it is greatly encouraging, and always remember to give yours, if anyone should ask.
We long to see you at our next gathering, there is always room for you who read this. May the Lord bless you and keep you,
FRF Team
