One Solitary Life

By James Allen Francis

 

He was born in an obscure village,

the child of a peasant woman.

He grew up in another obscure village,

where He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty.

Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher.

He never had a family or owned a home.

He never set foot inside a big city.

He never traveled two hundred miles from the place He was born.

He never wrote a book, or held an office.

He did none of the things that usually accompany greatness.

While He was still a young man,

the tide of popular opinion turned against Him.

His friends deserted Him.

He was turned over to His enemies,

and went through the mockery of a trial.

He was nailed to a cross between two thieves.

While He was dying,

His executioners gambled for the only piece of property He had --- His coat.

When He was dead,

He was taken down and laid in a borrowed grave.

Twenty centuries have come and gone,

and today He is the central figure for much of the human race.

All the armies that ever marched,

and all the navies that ever sailed,

and all the parliaments that ever sat,

and all the kings that ever reigned,

put together,

have not affected the life of man upon this earth

as powerfully as this "One Solitary Life."

Sunday, December 14th New and Improved Outline

Here is the completed outline of today's message:

Life Interrupted

Luke 2:8-20 & Matt. 27, Mark 15, Luke 23, John 19

Christmas at Calvary Part 2

Unexpected changes to your life will either draw you closer to God or drive you further from God.

#1: What to do immediately when life changes suddenly                                          (Luke 2:8-20)

·  Reach Out - Community

·  Move Forward - Obedience

·  Lift Up - Worship

#2: What to do thoroughly, when life changes gradually                         (Matthew 27, Mark 15, Luke 23, John 19)

·  List the evidences of God’s love

·  List the evidences of God’s power

·  List the evidences of God’s plan

Do you draw closer to God when your life gets interrupted?

Did You Know?

While in a meeting in Chicago, I saw this incredible video clip about the pace of change in our world. Things are changing and they are changing fast! This means the Good News of Jesus Christ can spread even more quickly than it did before!
