Plan of Salvation: John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever shall believe in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

The Christian message is often referred to as the "Gospel," which means "good news." Specifically, it is the good news about Jesus—who He is, what He has done, and what He offers. Essentially, the message is that Jesus was God in the flesh, that He came into the world to reconcile humanity to Himself, and that his salvation is freely offered to each person who will respond in faith. The Gospel message explains that salvation is only possible through the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus. Through his sacrifice, Jesus paid the price for our sinfulness (rebellion against God), thus offering us forgiveness. Then through his Resurrection He conquered death, removing it as the penalty for our sin and replacing it with the offer of eternal life that is only available from Him to all those that place their faith in Him.

A precocious student, he skipped both the ninth and 12th grades and entered Morehouse College at age 15. *He married Coretta Scott, on June 18, 1953, on the lawn of her parents' house in her hometown of Heiberger, Alabama. They had four children; Yolanda King, Martin Luther King III, Dexter Scott King, and Bernice King.

* King was influenced by Jesus, Abraham Lincoln, Benjamin Mays, Hosea Williams and Bayard Rustin. * On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat on a bus in Montgomery, Alabama. King helped organize The Montgomery Bus Boycott, lasting for 385 days. The situation became so tense that King's house was bombed and he was arrested at one point.

Ways to Share Your Faith with People who Don’t Want to Hear It By Rev. John B. Sorensen Some Christians avoid sharing the Gospel because they fear one response: “I don’t like people cramming religion down my throat.” Well, there is one thing you can do to avoid ever hearing that dreaded answer. It’s really simple. When you want to talk to someone about the Gospel, always ask for and receive permission first before discussing spiritual matters.

Jerusalem Is Capital of Israel never implemented because of opposition from former Presidents Clinton, Bush and Obama.

President Donald Trump has promised to move the embassy to Jerusalem. "President Trump's affirmation of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is a welcome step in the right direction. Moving the U.S Embassy to Jerusalem is a recognition of established facts. Jerusalem has only been the capital of one nation and that nation is Israel,” said Staver. President Donald Trump affirmed that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, and promised to begin the process of relocating the U.S. Embassy in Israel from TelAviv to Jerusalem. "President Trump's affirmation that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel represents a significant and long overdue shift in U.S. policy," said Mat Staver, Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel, President of Christians in Defense of Israel, and Founder and Chairman of Covenant Journey. In every country worldwide, the U.S. respects the choice of the nation state and locates its embassy in the capital. However, the embassy in Israel is in Tel Aviv, despite the fact that Israel designates Jerusalem as its capital and despite the fact that Congress voted to move the embassy to Jerusalem. The Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995 passed the Senate by 93-5 and the House by 374-37 to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem by requiring the withholding of State Department funds if was not moved. However, the law was

Last May, approximately 60 Christian leaders, representing 60 million Christians across America, signed a letter that was delivered to President Trump calling on him to move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem and thus recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. "King David established Jerusalem as the capital of Israel 3,000 years ago. It has been, is, and shall remain the capital of Israel. It is time America recognized the obvious. I am pleased with President Trump's announcement. He is the only president who has kept his word,” said Staver. Liberty Counsel is an international litigation, education, and policy organization.

good people who deserve Heaven. But there’s a difference between the Gospel being threatening and the witness being threatening. The Gospel is, but we shouldn’t be. Being pushy or overbearing does little to advance God’s Word. However, if you share the Gospel in a considerate manner— having first received permission - and then that person is offended, you did nothing wrong.

“I try to be kind to people,” and so on. At which point, you can ask them if you can share what the real answer is. Keep in mind, a non-threatening Gospel message simply does not exist. 1 Corinthians 1:23 calls the Gospel a “stumbling block” and “foolishness” to those who don’t believe. The Gospel is a threat to the belief that we can get into Heaven by our good works . . . it’s a threat to the belief that we’re really

Remember, you’re looking for an opportunity to share the Gospel not win an argument. The Lord can take the Gospel you shared and change the heart of that person who reacted negatively. God’s truth has a way of doing that. _____ Rev. John B. Sorensen, D.D. is the President/CEO of Evangelism Explosion International, headquartered in Arden, N.C. EE has been a leader in equipping Christians to share their faith for more than 50 years. For more free tips and resources, visit evangelismexplosion.org.

Those top two topics lead five categories of New Year's resolutions. About 43 percent of respondents in the telephone survey, cited use of time as an important resolution. That was followed closely by improving relationships with family (42 percent) and working on finances (37 percent). One third of respondents wanted to improve a relationship with a friend. If you are one of the 75 percent of people who have failed to follow a resolution, you might want to reframe and re-adjust your new year vow. According to Christine Koh and Asha Dornfest, authors of Edit Your Life podcast, try using a different word for resolution. Try thinking of your resolutions as intentions or directions about where you will

take the year. If you think of them that way, then you may find yourself broadening your aims. Instead of vowing 'run one mile a day,' maybe what you really want to do is spend 30 minutes in dedicated exercise. No matter what your goals, sometimes the hardest become much easier when you whittle down a resolution to the barest bones. If you want to exercise, but you never have actually done it, maybe your resolution should be to just put on your exercise clothes at a specific time every day. Or just exercise for five minutes. That easy vow will get you started. Dornfest recommends you get a confidant to talk with you about pursuing your resolutions. The same person might not be perfect for all your resolutions, though. Koh advises building failure into resolutions. Hey, you are never going to be perfect. If or when you slip up, how will you address the problem? Build in a 'start again' plan.

Tax reform plan reinforces the need for churches to seek alternative income methods This expected reduction in individual giving complicates an already complex decline of the American Christian church. Studies and anecdotal data reveal a decline of overall American Christianity in both church numbers and membership. Within the United Church of Christ, a progressive mainline Christian denomination, its number of congregations has decreased by 28.0% (1,947 churches) in the last fifty years.

Why mobile-friendly websites are important Why mobile-friendly websites are important People are more attached to their smartphones than ever but recent analysis from Alliance Data shows that although 63 percent of millennials shop on them every day, only 39 percent of their total purchases are actually made online. This trend is alarming news for online stores and vendors that are eager to get this targeted demographic to follow through on their online purchases. This data is also a little puzzling because this same age group is much more likely to use their phones to research products, comparison shop, and look for coupons online before heading into the physical store to buy the merchandise. According to recent data from Osterman Research, online security could play a significant role in determining whether or not someone

actually buys their goods online. They cite the 42.2 percent of millennials in America that have limited their purchases due to security concerns. Any data shared over the internet carries with it some risk of identity theft or fraud. In this case, increased use of security-focused shopping portals, coupled with better transparency of the website itself could help pave the way for peace of mind. Perhaps more likely, CNET argues that many people turn to physical stores to complete their purchases simply because it can still be quite frustrating to input all the required in-

formation on a tiny smartphone keypad. Names, email addresses, passwords, physical addresses, and credit card numbers entered during checkout is a tedious process for all but the savviest users. Even using a desktop makes the process much more comfortable and the pictures are easier to view and navigate to boot.

For online retailers to secure their shoppers' attention and wallets, the process of adding items to carts and checking out should be as seamless as possible. Integrating many different types of payment options, such as Paypal or Apple Pay, would also help entice people who trust a dedicated payment platform over an online storefront.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 89th Birthday Commemoration Venue - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Library , 150 East San Fernando Street, San Jose , CA January 13th, 12pm - 1pm.

The 14th Annual Walk for Life West Coast will be held on January 27, 2018 in San Francisco to continue proclaiming a powerful message that has been present since its beginning over a decade ago: there is hope and healing from abortion, women deserve better than abortion, and as a society we have to do better.

MLK Jr. 22nd Annual Breakfast - West High School, Tracy, CA 8: 30 AM—11: 00 AM January 15, 2018 The 22nd Annual Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Breakfast will feature speakers, entertainment and a silent auction to support the Black Student Union clubs at West, Kimball and Tracy high schools. The theme is “I AM the Difference.” Tickets are available at the Tracy Unified School District office, 1795 W. Lowell Ave., and through each of the schools. The breakfast is sponsored by Tracy African American Association, Tracy Unified School District, and West, Kimball and Tracy high schools.

The Walk for Life West Coast began 14 years ago as a grassroots effort from locals who live in the Bay Area. Co-founders and Bay Area residents Eva Muntean and Dolores Meehan started the Walk for Life West Coast to show people that there are other options for woman than abortion. These women, and the over 50,000 people expected to join them at the Walk for Life, believe these options are actually more “pro-woman” than abortion, protecting a woman’s natu- More events at our website: ral instinct to love her child and giving www.goodnewspress.us her choices to empower her to do so.

Another very important aspect of the Info Faire are hope and healing programs for women who regret their abortions and are often forgotten.
