JESUS – A GLIMPSE OF HELL
Musick-al note # 76 Hell is not the grave as some teach and many believe. Hell is beyond the grave for Jesus said in Matthew 10:28, “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and bodyContinue reading “JESUS – A GLIMPSE OF HELL”
JESUS – A GLIMPSE OF HEAVEN
Musick-al note # 75 The teaching concerning heaven and hell is an inseparable part of the New Testament. Even Old Testament writers spoke of the reality of heaven and hell and that those who are righteous will go to heaven and the unrighteous will go to hell. What is heaven? What is hell? Continue reading “JESUS – A GLIMPSE OF HEAVEN”
JESUS – THE JUDGE
Musick-al note # 74 The study of God’s Word is extremely important because it is God’s revelation to man that teaches us about Him and His Son, Jesus Christ. In the gospel of John, Jesus said that to “know God and his Son, Jesus is to have eternal life” John 17:3. This knowledge isContinue reading “JESUS – THE JUDGE”
JESUS – HIS SAVING BLOOD
Musick-al note # 73 God sent his son into the world that he might redeem man. To that end Jesus gave his life-blood for all mankind.

ON ATTENDANCE
Musick-al Note # 72 The situation with Covid-19 has made it impossible to meet in open fellowship with other Christians. Our ‘fellowship’ has been severely tested and often some are forgotten and lax communication will cause many to forsake the Lord Jesus. Everyone should be aware of the temptation to just ‘give up’ whenContinue reading “ON ATTENDANCE”
JESUS – THE I AM
Musick-al note # 71 The words translated ‘I am’ reveals the eternal nature of God. I am the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, he said, tell the people of Israel that ‘I AM’ has sent you to deliver you (Exodus 3:14-15). We must also understand that He is ever-present and ‘time’ is meaninglessContinue reading “JESUS – THE I AM”
JESUS – HIS CHURCH
Musick-al Note # 70 Jesus said in Matthew 16:18, “I will build my church” upon the foundation that He is the Christ whom Peter had just confessed. Paul said that no other foundation can be laid upon which man can build his work (1 Corinthians 3:11). On Pentecost following Jesus resurrection, the apostles receivedContinue reading “JESUS – HIS CHURCH”
JESUS – THE CARPENTER
Musick-al note # 69 Mark 6:3 “Is not this the carpenter, son of Mary and they took offense at him”. Jesus was seen as a carpenter, a lowly occupation. They knew he worked on houses, made furniture, repaired broken chairs, windows and this is what they saw and he should not be preachingContinue reading “JESUS – THE CARPENTER”
JESUS – HIS PARABLES
Musick-al note # 68 Most of Jesus teaching was in parables. A parable is teaching spiritual truths through earthly illustrations. When asked why he was using parables, Jesus said, “these things are done in parables so that those outside would ‘see but not perceive’ and ‘hear but not understand’ (Matthew 13:10-11, Mark 4:11-12). ManyContinue reading “JESUS – HIS PARABLES”
