    Looking To 2010

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Dec 30, 2009
     | 4,019 views

    Our hearts should be glad to consider the possible return of Jesus in 2010. People were glad to recognize him as Messiah in 33A.D. I sense some of us may not be as excited about the Lords return as we should be. For some of us that excitement has cooled.

    Looking to 2010 Mark 11:1-11 Happy New Year! 2010, just writing the date reminds us of how quickly time is marching forward. We are into a new year and into a new decade of the new millennium. It is hard to believe that we are already this far into a new millennium. Looking back at 1999 there ...read more

    Some criticize him for staying in Haran saying that he fell short of the promises of God, distracted by the attraction of wealth. I don’t think he was saying, OK, HE’S DEAD! WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? But he did stay in Haran until his father died.

    Part 1 - Genesis 12:1-20 (NASB) - OK, HE’S DEAD. WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? I understand the upheaval of moving to a different city. Packing endless boxes of books, dismantling beds and throwing out all the junk we have accumulated over time - big job. Then watching a huge truck back into our ...read more
