SUNDAY SNAPSHOT (Doomsday Prepping)

Doomsday Prepping… (1) Accuracy of Prophecy

CELEBRATORS… A lot of times when we talk about the END TIMES… there’s a lot of UNCERTAINTY… UNCLARITY and even FEAR! A lot of Christians don’t even know exactly WHAT’S going to HAPPEN - or HOW it’s going to HAPPEN! The first thing you need to know is this… As a CHRIST FOLLOWER – YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR! You’re on the RIGHT TEAM! However… if you DON’T KNOW JESUS PERSONALLY or YOU HAVE FRIENDS/FAMILY that DON’T KNOW JESUS PERSONALLY… it would do you well to know EXACTLY about the END TIMES and what you might need to be DOING NOW… to be PREPARED! If anything… it should place a sense of URGENCY to CHANGE HOW YOU MIGHT BE LIVING or place an URGENCY on TELLING OTHERS ABOUT JESUS! The fact of the matter is this… WHAT we’re going to learn the next FIVE WEEKS together… IS… GOING… TO… HAPPEN! My prayer for this Series is that it will be both INFORMATIVE for you – And… rightfully place an INITIATIVE in YOU… to BE READY! We’re gonna have some fun talking about… THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT (according to the Bible)! Please… Do EVERYTHING you can to NOT MISS A WEEK! But… should you miss a week or two… be sure to catch up on our PODCAST or VIDEOCAST (www.churchofcelebration.com) so you can stay with us! Hope you ENJOY THE RIDE!

Below is a sneak-peak of this week’s message… (1) Accuracy of Prophecy

First Question out of the gate is this… Is it reasonable to believe that what the Bible says is Prophetically True? (Look no farther than Isaiah 53 for Historical Proof!)

Here’s what you need to know… When we read about WHAT’S GONNA HAPPEN in Scripture… It’s like reading TOMORROW’S HEADLINES… TODAY! (Trust me… The odds that God was guessing… are IMPOSSIBLE!)

If there were ever a generation that could understand where once things seemed IMPOSSIBLE… but today they're POSSIBLE… it's OURS!

When is the END coming…? Matthew 24:36… “NO ONE KNOWS the day/hour - not the angels - not the Son - only the Father." NOBODY KNOWS! Will YOU Be Ready?

IF WE ARE CLOSE…? Don’t you think it's time to stop living for YOURSELF and start living for JESUS - by making a DIFFERENCE FOR HIM?

IF WE ARE CLOSE…? Are you READY for that TIME - WHENEVER it may COME?

Biggest Question of ALL… WHO do you want to TRUST in the ACCURACY OF PROPHECY for the END TIMES?

Praying you have a “BLESSED” Week Celebrators!!

SATURDAY/SUNDAY SNAPSHOT (THE BOOK OF JOB 7)

The Book of Job… (7) Saved… or Lost?

CELEBRATORS… Job 42:12a says something rather fascinating… The Lord BLESSED the LATTER PART of Job’s life more than the FIRST… Not sure about you Celebrators – but I WANT THAT… I WANT THAT FOR ME and I WANT THAT FOR YOU! And I’m pretty sure since God did that for JOB – that He wants to do the same for YOU… BLESS YOU TOO! Each week of this series we’ve looked closely at the RESPONSES of JOB when ‘all hell broke loose in his life’ – to see how JOB RESPONDED to receive such a BLESSING in his LATER LIFE! This last week we’ll be looking closely at how Job’s PERSPECTIVE towards PEOPLE changed in the course of these events in his life! I think you’ll find it rather FASCINATING… as did I! Whenever we face difficult circumstances in life – if we are in tune with the SPIRIT – WE SEE PEOPLE DIFFERENTLY! Don’t miss this last week!!!!

Below is a sneak-peak of this week’s message… (7) Saved… or Lost?

The CLOSER WE WALK WITH CHRIST… we too… begin to SEE PEOPLE… THE WAY GOD SEES PEOPLE! One of Two ways... SAVED... or LOST?

You can always tell who is FIRED UP about REACHING the LOST!

YOU NEVER FORGET WHAT THAT FEELING WAS LIKE! (Or have you?)

We gotta FEEL what GOD FEELS! When you lose something of VALUE - you DO something about it! GOD DID... JESUS is what He DID!

If you say you genuinely FEEL what GOD FEELS... then let me ask... HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE YOU REACHED FOR CHRIST THIS WEEK?

If you know Jesus personally... YOU are an AGENT OF RECONCILIATION!

BRINGING those who are FAR FROM HIM... NEAR TO HIM!

If we SEE what GOD SEES... FEEL what GOD FEELS... we will DO what GOD SAYS! His words are not just INFORMATION... they are REVELATION! (ACTION!!)

Praying you have a “BLESSED” Week Celebrators!!
