BULLETIN

RAY’S REMARKS:I hope everyone is having a great week so far. It sure has been

nice to have a little rain after such a dry spell. Anyway, we are trulya blessed people of God and we have so much to be thankful for. Tuesday was an exciting day. The students and faculty of the BIMwere able to go to the 39th Street Church of Christ lectureships inIndependence, Missouri. We were able to hear 4 different speakersduring the day, and our own brother Chuck was one of them. It is alwaysgreat to have the opportunity and privilege to fellowship with brethren oflike precious faith. It was also great to have brother Jim Barnes go withus, as well as a brother who visited with us Sunday whose name is Mike.We had a great time in this service to God.

Let me also say that we certainly appreciate the 39th Street congre-gation for the love for God and His Truth. In fact, the preacher JackWilliams is going to hold our Gospel meeting next month. In connectionwith our upcoming meeting, let me encourage us all to make plans to bea part. Also, let me encourage you to invite others to be a part of thistime of study. There is no better place to be than with our brethren andfriends worshiping God and learning more about his Word. Let’s prayfor this upcoming time of encouragement and spiritual growth. Sunday was a great Lord’s day. It was certainly a blessing to haveso many visitors; some we knew well and some we were blessed to meetfor the first time. How wonderful it is to be God’s Children and to gatherto Worship him; as well as to share our faith with those who visit with us.Once again, I was told by one of our visitors how friendly the congrega-tion was and how welcome they felt in being with us. Our Agape meal was also a great success on Sunday. It is alwayswonderful to share such time with our brethren and to catch up on oneanother’s daily lives. It is great to be a part of such a loving family hereat Kansas Expressway. Finally, let me encourage you all to be prepared, present and readyto worship God this coming Sunday. We have the wondrous opportunityas Christians to come before God’s throne and to worship Him in spiritand truth. What a privilege it is to obey this uplifting commandment ofGod. I look forward to seeing you this Lord’s Day. God bless!

ELDERS’ CORNER:DOES IT REALLY MATTER

WHAT RELIGION YOU PRACTICE? Only the right authority gives the right answer.The authority is not man (Jer. 10:23) nor what seemsright to man (Prov. 14:12). It’s not feelings, conscienceor creed books. The only right answer is God’s Word(2 Tim. 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:3). The question is not whatmatters to man, but rather, “what matters to God.” If itdoes not matter to God, then why did God demandreligious people to obey the Gospel (Acts 2, 8, 10, 16,22)? If it does not matter to God, then there are nofalse religions, doctrines and teachers. But the Biblereveals that such do exist (Matt. 7:15,21-23; Rom.16:17-18; 2 Pet. 2:1-2; 1 John 4:1).

When one reads the charge of the Great Commis-sion (Matt. 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-16), does not thatshow the Lord is not just interested in one practicing“religion“, but it is His Word that determines what weare to believe, obey and practice (Col. 3:17)? It mattersto God what we “believe in,” “belong to” and how we“live and worship.” It is His Way and only His Way thatleads to Heaven.
