This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
NOT ALL HOPE IS HOPE
“They were confounded because they had hoped; they came thither, and were ashamed”
(Job 6:20)
“There will be many who will be confounded when they stand before the Lord and hear Him say; ‘Depart from me, I never knew you.’ Many hope to go to heaven and to miss hell. They hope in their morality, their faith, and their works; they hope in everything under heaven, but never in the one seated at Gods’ right hand. Jesus Christ is all the hope that God the Father has given to sinners. The only hope that any sinner has in salvation is Christ himself; if I have Him, I have all that God demands. O sinner, make sure that Jesus Christ is the sum and substance of all your hope; if so, all is well. (1Timothy 1:1)”
Pastor John Chapman
The Difference Between the Dove and the Raven
“Why did the dove return to the ark and the raven never return? Because the raven could live off the dead, decaying animals drowned in the flood. But the dove could not. It had to return to the ark for its food. The raven represents the religious man who does not know Christ. He is satisfied with the dead, rotting works of the flesh. But the true believer must return to Christ his ark for food. The mark of a true believer is that he is continually coming to Christ for the same thing! Mercy and grace! He cannot be satisfied with anything less.”
Pastor Todd Nibert
“One of the main objectives of the ministry of the gospel is to convince sinners of their sin and misery without Christ. Men will not come to Christ Jesus until they are so convinced. ‘They that are whole [well] need not a physician.’ If you love your soul, seriously meditate upon this fact and do not allow pride to rob you of the TROUBLING but pleasant, realization that YOU ARE A SINNER! ‘Christ is the friend of sinners’.”
