The Press-Dispatch Church Wednesday, Januar y 2, 2019 C- 3 MINUTES Continued from page 1 Continued from page 2 ham refuses the rich man's request, explaining that if his brothers would not hear the Word of God "nei- ther will they be persuaded though one rose from the dead" (Luke 16:31). The way to avoid the lot of the rich man, then, is to believe the Word of God, particularly that part of the Word which tells how Christ died for our sins that we might be justified by grace through faith. Don't be deceived by the old ad- age: "Misery loves compa- ny." Receive Christ as your Savior today. "Believe on the Lord Je- sus Christ and thou shalt be saved" (Acts 16:31).

But praise God, "But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things will be added unto you" (Matthew 6:33). What things will be add- ed? God's order back into our lives—a peace that pass- all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become ma- ture, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ" (Ephesians 4:11-13, NIV ).

Richard Comer, Pastor I said a prayer for you to- day and I know God must have heard, I felt the an- swer in my heart although He spoke no word. I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send you trea- sures of a far more lasting kind. I asked that He'd be near you at the start of each new day, to grant you health and blessings and friends to share the way. I asked for happiness for you in all things great and small, but it was for His loving care I asked for most of all. We invite all of you to come and worship with us.
