Pastor Kenny Ross Our Mission: ‘To live for Jesus and bring others to Him’ Sunday 9 November 2014 Scripture fulfilled in Christ Luke 22: 35-46 Sometimes things that are actually quite spectacular become unspectacular. They lose something of the wonder that they once had. It may not be that they have lost their wonder but rather we have grown accustomed to them. They don't seem ‘as spectacular’ anymore. I'm sure you all know what I mean. Well, what if that were also true about a person’s view of God. What if someone were to become so 'used' to Christ and the gospel that He didn't hold as much 'awe' as once He did in their opinion. I fear that at times the message of the gospel, message angels long to look into, is treated that way by many a believer. We become so accustomed to what the gospel is and what it means. So accustomed even to Christ and what He has done for us. It's not that familiarity has bred contempt, but rather just a sense of less awe, we are used to it!! My hope and prayer for all of us this morning is that God would astound us with the message of the gospel afresh. Let's hope. www.cullodenbaptistchurch.org.uk Registered Scottish Charity No SC027503 Kenny YOUTH FELLOWSHIP The YF will be meeting this evening, 9 November, 6.30 until 8:30pm, at the CYC.
