La Vernia Church of Christ
All to Jesus I Surrender
“So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple..” These are the words of Jesus as found in Luke 14:33. Christ knows that the best thing for us is an eternal home in Heaven. He wants us to evaluate our life and to realize that God alone is worthy of first place. When we wake up in the morning we must “seek first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness” (Matthew 6:33) and God will bless us richly. We must have the same attitude that Peter expressed in Luke 18:28; “Then Peter said, "See, we have left all and followed You." Are you willing to leave all and follow Christ? What if you realize that the place where you worship is not following the teachings of Christ as found in the Bible? Would you be willing to surrender to the teachings of Christ and seek the church we read about in the New Testament? We know Christ’s church exist today because Jesus said in Matthew 16:18 “I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” If you would like to learn more about the church that you read about in the Bible you can read the book of Acts in your New Testament. You can also call my cell # at 210-782-8788 and we can study the Bible together.
