One, Two, Three

 

One, Two, Three

COVID-19 has closed many churches and reduced attendance in others to a fist full. In rural areas, at least, social distancing is possible, hand sanitizing solutions provided and face masks are available and used. It seems that it is the high risk individuals who attend. Discouragement comes easy to those keeping the “home fires burning.” Meringue can be heard concerning the devils work in all this. More criticizing those who choose not to attend. But our Lord whispers, “stand and see the mighty hand of God at Work.”

Matthew 3:3 “For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

Romans 5:17 “For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)”

Romans 14:5 “One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.”

Matthew 18:19 “Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.”

Mark 6:7 “And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;

Matthew 18:16 “But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.”

Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”

John 2:19 “Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”

Acts 17:2 “And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures,”
1 John 5:7 “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.”

1 John 5:8 “And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.”
One, two or three have a responsibility to raise up our Lord in worship and praise. Faith must establish us in Gods word. Know God know peace. Amen. 11-08-2020 BLL
