Hope for the Future – Believe!
We continue our journey with Jeremiah and Luke this week. From Jeremiah we hear how the powers that be are upset because he prophesied against the people of Israel. His response is to show them how the Lord showed him that though they were going to go into Exile, they still had hope for the future. He gives them the example of God calling him to buy a field from his cousin. Through his legalistic and traditional doing so he shows how the traditions and teachings of God shall remain in order to once again reestablish the people of Israel. Then Luke tells us the story of the Rich Man and Lazarus. Calling us to look to the prophets and the teachings and to strengthen our belief in God with the warning that we do not end up like the rich man in the story. In a day and time where much hope is needed and that message of the Gospel is so critical to our future, come and join us as we explore what all of this means for us and those we serve as Christians in today’s world!
