Do you have a 'sound proof' head?


Unless there is within you that which is above you…you can be easily overwhelmed by the things that are around you.

Regardless of your age, Jesus can make a new person of you.  He can smooth away all of the wrinkles of your soul.

You can be born again!!

The book of Acts in the New Testament describes what people did to enjoy “newness of life” through the grace of God in Jesus.

The complete authority of Jesus was declared by the Apostles and the early Christian teachers.  Those who believed this declaration were instructed to “repent” (to turn their lives in His direction for a life-long journey).  The believers made a public statement of their faith in Christ.  They were baptized.  (Read the reminder that Paul gives of baptism to the Christians in Rome.  Romans, chapter 6)

You and I cannot afford to have “sound proof heads” to the teachings of the Bible!!

TODAY - Is The Only Time We Have


Changing the mirror will not change a person’s reflection.  Only a change in the person will create a new reflection.  This is true of both a physical mirror and the mirror of the soul.

Improvement in the spiritual mirror begins with the recognition that one has been created in the image of God.

You can follow Christ who came into history to provide forgiveness and strength to anyone who accepts His invitation.  (If you are serious about doing this, read the New Testament book of Acts to find what people did in the first century following the victory of Christ over evil and death.  Christ has not changed over the centuries.  He extends the same invitation today.)

The time for both of us to create a proper reflection in the mirror of life is – TODAY! 

The past is gone and the future has not arrived…so TODAY is the only time we have.
