Friday December 3, 2010 thought for the day

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-What Jesus has ever done, he is ever able to do-

2-It takes more than good doctrine to make you a Christian-

3-No one escapes the consequences of refusing God's word-

4-Until a Christian can truly thank God for what he has and be willing to accept that as God's provision for his life, contentment will never be possible-

5-Thankfulness is a state of mind, not an accumulation of assets-

STRANGE THOUGHT-The one who says it cannot be done should never interpret the one who is doing it-

I'VE LEARNED-It is when we work together that we see the best results-

DID YOU KNOW-The ball on top of a flagpole is called the truck-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-How can you have perfect love?

2-Should Christians be the most loving of all people?

3-What makes Christians Christian?

4-Can you love for the wrong reasons?

5-How do you live a life full of joy?

BIBLE TRIVIA-What Babylonian king sent his ambassadors to the court of Hezekiah, where they were shown all his treasures?

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY LUKE 20:27-40

Some Sadducees Try to Trick Jesus

²⁷ Some Sadducees, who believed people would not rise from the dead, came to Jesus.²⁸ They asked, "Teacher, Moses wrote that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, then that man must marry the widow and have children for his brother.²⁹ Once there were seven brothers. The first brother married and died, but had no children.³⁰ Then the second brother married the widow, and he died.³¹ And the third brother married the widow, and he died. The same thing happened with all seven brothers; they died and had no children.³² Finally, the woman died also.³³ Since all seven brothers had married her, whose wife will she be when people rise from the dead?"

³⁴ Jesus said to them, "On earth, people marry and are given to someone to marry. ³⁵ But those who will be worthy to be raised from the dead and live again will not marry, nor will they be given to someone to marry.³⁶ In that life they are like angels and cannot die. They are children of God, because they have been raised from the dead. ³⁷ Even Moses clearly showed that the dead are raised to life. When he wrote about the burning bush, he said that the Lord is 'the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.' ³⁸ God is the God of the living, not the dead, because all people are alive to him."

³⁹ Some of the teachers of the law said, "Teacher, your answer was good."⁴⁰ No one was brave enough to ask him another question.

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
