The Bartimaeus Blog 2020.33
Hello friends and family. My prayer this week is that we never miss an opportunity to share the good news of Jesus with someone who needs to hear it. Here’s the scoop on happenings at BBT.
Keep Tim in your prayers. The latest from Cindy is that he is back at Parkland this afternoon for more tests. I saw him on Wednesday and he was interacting with us but was in bed. Ruth is doing well. We just had a nice talk. Keep praying for Kimi. She is still having the swelling in her legs, but she and Pris are getting out a little.
I enjoyed our service last week. It was good to have even more back with us. Hopefully it won’t be much longer before Debra is able to join us again.
I’m going to pick up where we left off last week. We looked at Romans 10, focusing on verses 8-13 and showing how Paul used the old testament to confirm what he wrote. It makes the central gospel message that much more powerful.
But this passage, often used as we share with others how to be saved, is part of a broader subject. Paul is explaining God’s relationship to the people of Israel, the Jews. We’ll continue from verse 14 and see what he has to say. Some say that God is done with Israel. Paul, and God, would disagree with that statement.
I look forward to seeing you there on Sunday.
Love y’all!
Larry
