The Coming Year, 2015
It hardly seems possible another year has
h
come and gone. Four years have past since I
started preaching full time for this wonderful
Christian family at Wildwood. Time seems to pass
faster with the passing of each year. I've heard
this said, "Since we have gotten older, time passes
so swiftly." As a young person, that saying was
hard for me to understand because it seemed the
day would never pass fast enough.
Most people are not only concerned about the
quickness of time but also about the uncertainty of
the future. The scripture says, "Who knoweth what
a day may bring." The truth is, none of us know
what the future holds but we do know who holds
the future. How desperately we need a friend from
above to help us. Starting today, and next Sunday,
we willl discuss together "The Friend Everybody
Needs in 2015." It is my hope and prayer, that you
will seek this Friend in 2015, because we live in an
uncertain, fast moving and frequently troubled
world. I hope to see you at each service with a
Bible in your hand
nd so we can learn about this
wonderful friend.

ask one of our elders or Mike McKay for a receiver.
There is a Nursery available for your convenience. It
is located in the foyer.
A Man of Contrasts:
Savior and Friend
In one of my Bible classes on the Gospel of John,
we read about our Lord's wonderful entrance into
Jerusalem a week before His death. Being the Son of
God, and proving His claims of being the coming
Messiah by His many signs, wonders and miracles
(John 11), He could have entered into Jerusalem on a
mighty steed instead of a lowly donkey. Throughout
our Lord's ministry on this earth, He was a man of
striking contrasts. John's gospel demonstrates His
Church Family News
genuine humanity and His full deity (John 12:44-50).
Welcome Friends: No Welcome Friends today. Next In a commentary on the Gospel of John, the writer
Sunday will be group 2.
said this about Jesus:

Sermons on church website:
www.wwcofchrist.com
"He, who is the Bread of Life, began His ministry
hungering. He, who is the Water of Life, ended His
ministry thirsting. Christ hungered as a man, yet fed
the hungry as God. He was weary, yet He is our rest.
He paid tribute, yet He is the King. He was called a
devil, but He cast out demons. He prayed, yet He
hears prayers. He wept, and He dries our tears. He
was sold for 30 pieces of silver, yet He redeems
sinners. He was hated for eating with sinners, yet He
wanted to be everyone's friend. He was led as a lamb
to the slaughter, yet He is the Good Shepherd. He
gave His life and, by dying, He destroyed death."
It's no wonder when you read the four Gospels, you
will find such contrasts in the life of One who was fully
God and fully man. It's amazing to think that the Lord
of this universe is not only our Savior, Kind and
Redeemer, but wants to be our friend now and in the
future. A scripture text for today is John 15:13-15.
