Therefore, be
ye also ready: for in an hour as he thinks not the son of man cometh. Matthew 24: 44 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be like unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise
answered, saying, not so; lest there be not enough for us and you, but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us .but he answered and said; verily I say unto you I know you not. Watch therefore, for he know neither the day nor the hour wherein the son of man cometh. (Matthew25:1-13). We must ever remain vigilant and be aware of the times in which we live, for the son of man will soon return in an hour that we think not. It is important for us to be prepared for the return of Christ by giving ourselves to
prayer and patiently studying the word of God, and surrendering our lives and live in obedience to God. Signs and wonders have been shown by God to let us know that He will soon return. However, many people have never heard about the rapture and what is required of them to be ready, but let us remember that after death we have to stand before God to be judge and give account for all the things that were done during our time on earth, whether it is good or evil. Let us strive to live in holiness. We can join with Joshua and said as for me and my house we will serve the Lord. For further information, call (718) 324-0334 or 718-320-4218. —Rev. R. Sibblies
The Circle of Christ Church family extends a warm welcome to you and your family and invites you to come and worship with us at 147 Dreiser Loop, patio level (located in the Dreiser Community Center) . Thought for this week: But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 2 Corinthians 4: 7-9
Our natural tendency in hard times is often to try to go it alone. But in these turbulent times, it is vital that we hold fast to our faithful God and to the ones we love. No matter what challenges you face today, take comfort that God’s knows every issue on your heart and is able to shoulder your burdens. Hold fast to the faithful One. Your situation is not out of God scope; He has the ability to intervene, He is powerful and He is able. Don’t look at your situation, fix your eyes on your Savior. When you choose to trust Him, you will find peace
in the pain and strength in the struggle. We want to remind you that we are collecting non-perishable items and supplies in order to provide and support families in need of food. We also are providing counseling and referral services for families in the community. If you need or know someone in need, please call 347-945-1992. Please leave a message and we will gladly call you back. Come join us at Circle of Christ Church and experience the love of God. CHURCH SERVICE SCHEDULE
