Men Prepare Sermons; God Prepares Men

2nd Timothy 2:15

"The proper place for a ship to be is in the water, but if the water gets into the ship, the ship will sink. The proper place for the church is in the world,

BUT IF THE 'WORLD' GETS INTO THE CHURCH,

THE CHURCH WILL GO DOWN IN DISGRACE!"

Thank you for taking the time to view our blog;we look forward to reading your comments. DVDs of our services are available upon request. We covet your prayers and friendship. In His Service and For His Glory, Pastor Bill & Kathy ...
"Now fear the Lord and serve Him with all faithfulness...But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve...But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."-Joshua 24:14-15

Is God Calling You to be a Pastor?

The right kind of education is essential to the man who has answered God's call. No army dare send a soldier into battle without proper training. The results would be devastating, not only for the warrior, but for the war.

WELCOME TO VALLEY FARMS COMMUNITY CHURCH

MEET OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM


ALL ARE WELCOME!
WE TEACH THE TRUTH WITHOUT COMPROMISE!

WELCOME BACK
We here at the Community Christian Church believe a church is an essential service.  Being in compliance with the AZ state and federal suggested safety guidelines regarding COVID-19, we are encouraging Sunday service attendance. Understanding there will be limitations of social interaction, with a separation of a minimum of six feet for non-family members.  The leadership of the Community Christian Church is in agreement as we open services up to the community, limiting the gathering of each church activity to 10% or fewer people, for the health and safety of all concerned.  You are invited to attend.
Online services will continue to be available at communitychristianchurch.sermon.net
You are welcome to contact me anytime at 520-723-2952 (Leave a message.) e-mail pastorbill@westriv.com.  Or drop a note in the Drop Box on the front door.  May we never neglect to pray for one another.

IS THERE A BIBLICAL PRESCRIPTION TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN? YES! ONE, AND ONLY ONE. IT'S FOUND IN 2nd CHRONICLES 7:14; "IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY AND SEEK MY FACE, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SINS AND HEAL THEIR LAND." 

THE ANSWER IS: TURN BACK TO THE LORD GOD-TO FAITH-FAMILY!  



**********************************

TO BE CHRISTIANS, WE MUST CONFESS AND AGREE WITH GOD THAT SIN IS SIN! KNOWING THAT GOD HATES SIN! THE SINNER MUST CONFESS, REPENT AND TURN FROM THEIR SINS, TURN TO JESUS AS LORD AND BE SAVED!

WE ARE!

CHRIST CENTERED

                                                   FAMILY FOCUSED

                                                                                                    LIFE CHANGING

Remember: As Christians, we have a New Nature that is Constrained by the Truth of Scripture!

Knowing that; Truth is always Truth, from Eternity past, through Eternity Future.

SO REMEMBER! If it's True, it's NOT NEW- If it's New it's NOT TRUE! 

***********************************
A POWERFUL TRUTH:
The Word of God is alive and Powerful! When truly heard, this Word is Powerful enough to awaken the spiritually dead.  His Word, when accepted as Truth; is Powerful enough to save men from their sin, therefore...Trust in Him; John 6:14. “How can they hear without a preacher?” – Romans 10: 13-15.

Should you have any questions, feel free to talk with me.

BREAKFAST AT THE CHURCH - FEBRUARY 16th





Sunday Lunch at Church







************************
The Saga of a Local Church
And Four of Its Members:
Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, & Nobody

Each time there was a job to be done
Everybody was asked to do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that,
Because it was Everybody’s job.

Everybody thought Anybody could do it,
But Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.

Consequently, it wound up that Nobody told Anybody,
So, Everybody blamed Somebody.

********************

SALVATION: Not only to Eternity in Heaven, but from Eternity in Hell! You MUST, first of all: Humble yourself and Admit You Are a Sinner in Need of a Savior:

James 2:10 “For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles on one (point), he has become guilty of all.”


Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Accept God’s Love through the/Sacrifice in His Son Jesus
•Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

Turn to God in Repentance
•Acts 20:21 “I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus.”

Trust the Fullness Jesus Christ!
•Romans 10:9 “…if you confess with your mouth Jesus as  Lord,  and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved;

Romans 10:13 “For whoever calls on the Name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Romans 10:14 “How then shall they call on Him Who they have not believed?  And how shall they believe in Him of Whom they have not heard?  And how shall they hear without a preacher?

Romans 10:17 “So then Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.

Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me (God) and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.”

It may not be easy to give up your old sinful ways, and turn in faith to Jesus Christ; but it is the only way to  SALVATION,  AND IT IS WORTH IT! 

 CALL UPON (THE FULLNESS OF) THE NAME OF JESUS AND YOU WILL BE SAVED!

Dr. William Perry is a prolific writer of outstanding books. His titles for Newburgh Press thus far are Christians Helping Christians, Christian Counseling for the 21st Century and Theology for the 21st Century. Each book is a must for every reader of solid Christian material.
I am happy to endorse Dr. Perry’s latest treasure, “A Journey Through The Gospels.” Every student and preacher/teacher of the Bible needs this book for the desk or the bedside table. You will enjoy reading insights and valuable lessons that many casual readers of the Bible will miss.

While this book is not lengthy you will find a delightful study of each gospel that will make you appreciate the wonderful gospel stories and love Jesus even more.
To God be the glory!

  2. Hello PB

    Thank You for sharing the Word with me too.

    What an awesome picture we would present to a godless world if we would
    walk and work in the attributes of Jesus. His burden is light ... the
    light of the whole world.

    I want to live in a manner that will bring joy to Jesus and cause others
    to meet with Him as well.

    Sometimes PB we need to beat ourselves up and lothe ourselves for our sin.

    Paul spoke it in 2 Corinthians 7:9-10 / Ezekiel 6,20,36.

    You have given us 6 reason and ways to see the truth. How oh how does one find the patience to put up with, and continue to witness to these people. Yes, of course, It's with the Lord's help. Thank you Pastor!

    I am really enjoying and getting a lot out of your current series of messages and know this coming Sunday will be no different. I'll get some song ideas to you within a couple of days.

    Lord Bless your day,

  8. Bill & Kathy:

    It does seem like just a few days ago when we met! We are doing well. Barb tires easily, but she is a trooper and continues to go and do as much as she can. Thank you for your prayers, they keep us going. Barb has lost 5 inches in height due to compression fractures in her back from the chemo.

    Each day is another precious opportunity to serve our Lord.

    We HOPE to be able to travel sometime this coming spring to AZ. It would be wonderful to get together again.
