“Kedija” and “Musa” are both former Muslims who have suffered separation from their families in Ethiopia because of their decision to follow Jesus. Both have been persecuted because of their refusal to return to Islam. You’ll hear their amazing stories of how they came to Christ and how a tentmakers project funded by believers in Canada and Scotland is allowing them to be missionaries in areas of an east African nation that is hostile to Christianity.
“Do you think those Galileans were worse sinners than all the other people from Galilee?” Jesus asked. “Is that why they suffered? Not at all! And you will perish, too, unless you repent of your sins and turn to God.”
“And what about the eighteen people who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them? Were they the worst sinners in Jerusalem? No, and I tell you again that unless you repent, you will perish, too.”
Prayer: “Merciful God, we have sinned in what we have thought and said, in the wrong we have done and in the good we have not done. We have sinned in ignorance: we have sinned in weakness: we have sinned through our own deliberate fault. We are truly sorry. We repent and turn to you. Forgive us, for our Saviour Christ’s sake, and renew our lives to the glory of your name.” (Source: A New Zealand Prayer Book, The Sanctuary)
“If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.” (1 John 1.8-9 NLT)
Friends: Believe the Good News of the Gospel. In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven!
Spiritual Song:
I’m forgiven because You were forsaken / I’m accepted, You were condemned / I’m alive and well, Your Spirit is within me / Because You died and rose again
Amazing love, how can it be / That You, my King, should die for me / Amazing love, I know it’s true / It’s my joy to honor You / In all I do, to honor You
I’m forgiven because You were forsaken / I’m accepted, You were condemned / I’m alive and well, Your Spirit is within me / Because You died and rose again
You are my King / You are my King / Jesus, You are my King / You are my King
