The Sunday Message: "Welcome To The Neighborhood"

John 14:1-3 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

What made you choose the neighborhood that you currently reside in? Is it on the busline closest to your job? Did you base your decision on the fact that your money is funny?

Many people are discriminated against based on where they live. Some areas are drug infested and prone to crime, but these are human beings. It is a mistake to believe that every person in these areas are bad. Rich neighborhoods have criminals amongst them as well.

Have you ever thought to yourself, “I don't have to go the extra mile to help him/her, because they don't care.” What is it saying about you when you let your guard down in that way and treat people poorly? I pray that when you read this you will immediately began to make some changes. Let's treat people based on the content of their character, not based on what home they can afford. You will miss out on some good people by assuming the worse when you sense poverty. Most folks who are poor in the pockets are rich in spirit, because they depend on the Lord more. What program can you launch to help struggling parents? What can you do to help the children living in poverty? Be a part of the solution!

Though you may never be rewarded or get a pat on the back on earth...You will receive your reward in Heaven where there is a city full of mansions!


Revelation 21:19-21



 The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald,  the fifth onyx, the sixth ruby, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth turquoise, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.  The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass.
