Christmas Meal at Evangel Temple

FORT SMITH, Ark. (KFTA) — Each year, Evangel Temple in Fort Smith hosts a Christmas lunch aimed at feeding the homeless community. The church has been doing it for 31 years.
“They know that we are giving back during this Christmas season, and we truly believe that Christmas is about Christ,” said Ryan Rose, Evangel’s associate pastor. “There’s a lot of people who didn’t go to a Christmas party this year, a lot of people who aren’t spending Christmas with family, a lot of people not celebrating.”
Rose said around 300 people came and enjoyed a traditional Christmas meal this year. The lunch was hosted in the church’s gymnasium, where kids also got to meet Santa Clause. He sat in a chair near the front and talked to nearly 50 kids. Read the entire story HERE, or watch the video below.

God is Jealous FOR you!

Exodus 34:14 says, “For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:” 

A lot of times people miss the meaning of Jealous here. God is not being selfish or paranoid as man can be. He is passionate about His relationship with you and fights to keep it. 

 God confronts anything that will destroy that relationship or His people. That’s the God who loves you and fights for you, you just need to let Him in...

Sin Always Leads to More Sin

Was doing some studying this morning and what stood out to me today is that Sin always leads to more sin. If you are doing something and you know it is wrong and you are convincing yourself that its just a one time thing or that it won't go any further, you're wrong. Jesus said in John 8:34, "Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin."
When we commit it, we become a slave to it.This is why just a few verses earlier we see Jesus encouraging a woman to go forward and sin no more. Continuing in sin is never the right answer, Go and sin no more.
Ask God to forgive you, accept Jesus into your heart and live for him today. Will you make mistakes? Yes, we all do! But don't convince yourself that wrong is right and certainly don't convince yourself that it doesn't matter, your actions may have eternal consequences, not just momentary ones.

God Bless America! 
The USS New York is a battleship that was made with steel from the World Trade Center. 
The moral of the story: The enemy may try to destroy you, but no weapon formed against you will prosper. 
Keep fighting the good fight.....
