When Jesus chose a metaphor to illustrate His concern and love for people, He identified Himself as the Good Shepherd. John 10:11, 14. Paul tried very hard to pattern his ministry after that of his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He was not only an evangelist and theologian, but also a devoted shepherd and pastor. […]

“Thoughts by Adrian Rogers”
Adrian Rogers was an amazing pastor-teacher. He had a unique way with words and he had a quick wit. He’s been with the Lord since 2005. I’d like to share a few of his “thoughts” with you. Blessings, Pastor Leonard What we need is not great FAITH, but faith in a great God. Our greatest […]
“Reconciliation”
Over the years, there have been times when I knew things weren’t right between me and someone else. I can’t live like that, so I have gone each time to find out what I did that offended a brother or sister in Christ. The Bible says to “speak the truth in love.” There is nothing […]
“The Witness of the Holy Spirit”
In 1 John 3:1a we read, See how very much our Father loves us, for He calls us His children, and that is what we are! The New King James Version puts it like this: Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! In some translations, […]
“Don’t Give Up”
Have you ever felt like quitting, giving up, or throwing in the towel? In Mark 10:46-52 we read about a man who refused to give up. Then they reached Jericho, and as Jesus and his disciples left town, a large crowd followed him. A blind beggar named Bartimaeus (son of Timaeus) was sitting beside the […]
“Christmas Greetings”
Warmest greetings to all who receive our “Jubilee Weekly.” 2024 has been an amazing year for our Jubilee Church. We had so many exciting events that were well attended and a blessing to all. The 2nd Annual Chili Cook-Off was a huge success. Our Women’s Ministry held several Bible Studies during the year. The attendance […]
“The Rapture”
What is the “Rapture?” It is the sudden removal of the church (Believers in Christ) from earth to be with the Lord. Paul, in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 wrote, “Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And then we […]
“How To Win Over Temptation”
Have you ever been tempted to do something wrong? The temptation to do something wrong — it may be something as simple as not telling the whole truth – comes directly from our adversary, Satan. God never tempts us to do wrong. James 1:13, “And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, ‘God […]
“Thoughts On Prayer”
In this meditation, I want to share three thoughts on Prayer. I am basing what I share on Luke 11. At the beginning of the chapter the disciples came and asked Him to teach them to pray and He gave them what we refer to as the Lord’s prayer. (1-4) One day Jesus was praying […]
“Love”
There are 105 verses in 1 John and love is mentioned more than 40 times. John uses seven verses to remind us of a wonderful truth – “We love God because He first loved us.” We love Him because He first loved us. We love others because He first loved us. Love starts and stops […]
