You CAN take it with you! (2) – 2 Corinthians 8:1-15 & 9:6-11a: Ian Higginbotham

Ian Higginbotham looks at the challenge in 2 Corinthians 8:1-15 & 9:6-11a.

This is part two of a two part message, part one is here.

The key verse for these message is found in Matthew 6:19-21:

Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.

As part of the response to this message an evaluation sheet was provided, this is available here: Giving Balance Challenge.

Dawn for the Dead: Andrew Gardner

Amazing things are happening in New York Hospitals. On the the back of wonderful research and practise at Stoneybrook University Hospital, New York is now a good place to have a heart attack.

Sam Parnia a British doctor has pioneered the “Lazarus Effect” of resuscitation; bringing people dead from heart attacks back to life.

In his book “Erasing Death” he says,

“Recent scientific advances have produced a seismic shift in our understanding of death — challenging our perceptions of death as being absolutely implacable and final — and have thus rendered many of our strongest-held views regarding death as outdated and old-fashioned.”

Now that is a great claim , but it sounds familiar; a lot like something which happened about 2000 years ago!

His incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of His mighty strength which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead
