More than a dozen mine rescue teams from the tristate area competed on the course. American Coal’s Galatia Mine finished the course with the fastest time and took home first place. Runnerup honors went to Gibson County Coal’s Team Rhino. Knight Hawk member talks to his teammates on the course behind him. From the desk of Pastor Ferris Isn’t that good enough? The question often arises, if I live a good life and am a good person, isn’t that good enough? If I don’t hurt people, don’t drink, don’t cuss, don’t steal, and don’t lie, and I am basically good, isn’t that good enough? If my good works out number my bad works, isn’t that good enough? Well if you were a Buddhist, your good works might get you in one of their 33 heavens. But you could only stay for awhile. Here is what the Buddhist believes. “One day in the heaven realm is equal to 400 human years. But, one day the karma that put you in this heaven will be used up. You are only in heaven as long as your Karma account has merit in it. When the karma that put you in heaven is used up... you’re reborn. In this human rebirth, we experience anxiety and fear to keep us striving. We cannot relax too long in any one mental state as a human, because all things are in a constant state of flux.” When all is said and done, who wants to go to heaven just for a little while and then come back to try to earn a longer stay and do this over and over and over again, always working to achieve being good enough but never making it. Maybe if you were a Muslim, and deny that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and deny the Holy Spirit and only accept the Muslim belief that entry to Paradise is dependent upon recognizing and worshiping Allah, and performing good works, as a works-oriented religion, Islam requires that its adherents earn their way to heaven. Muslims have no guarantee of being saved. They believe that all their works will be accounted for and that on Judgment Day, if your bad works outweigh your good works, you are going to go to hell. But if your good works outweigh your bad works, you’ll probably go to heaven. None of us, no matter how much good we may do, deserve forgiveness or salvation. There is nothing you can do that will make you worthy of it. You cannot be saved by keeping the commandments; the word of God clearly shows you that you have not kept them. James 2:10 says “For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.” In John 6, the Jews asked Jesus, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” (v 28). In other words, they wanted to know what works God required them to do for eternal life. But Jesus’ answer startled them: “This is the work of God that you believe in Him whom He sent” (v 29). They could not be saved by doing Photo by Teri Clark Third graders hear about banking at Primary Center Karen Pelker of Integra Bank speaks to third graders about her career and the banking system. Third grade teacher Rebecca Frisby noted that she was especially pleased to have the children see a woman in such a positive professional role. Pastor Ferris works. God’s only requirement was belief in His Son. Furthermore, if we define believe as surrender, commit, or obey, we revert back to a salvation by works. It is impossible that faith could in any way be a work of merit or something done to earn God’s grace “Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt. But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness” (Rom 4:4-5). Faith is simple--so simple millions miss it! Many have missed it in Acts 16:31. What must you do to be saved? The biblical answer is simply believe only in the Lord Jesus Christ and accept his death as the price for your sins. Accept his resurrection as evidence of Gods power to give you eternal salvation and you will be saved. It is not by your works, there never good enough. It is only buy the work done on the cross. Accept his work done for you. Send your comments or suggestions to pastorferris@dtypub.com Got an event you would like to see covered for your club or organization?
