(Luke 2:1-7)…..And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. 2 This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria. 3 So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. 4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, …

Unto Us, A Child Is Given
(Luke 2:1-7)….. And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. 2 This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria. 3 So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. 4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed …
Unthankfulness Is Not Good
(2 Timothy 3:1-5 ESV)…..But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.
It seems the more people have the less thankful they become. In our day it seems that complaints are abundant, …
Prayer And Thankfulness
It’s that time of the year where we are told to gear up for a season of thanksgiving. A time of year that people are more open to the activity than any other time of the year. But for those who know Jesus Christ, thanksgiving (along with prayer) are to be a daily event, if not even more. Here is a way to think of thankfulness by using Scripture.
Take delight in the Lord, and He will give you your heart’s desires (Psalm 37:4).
How great are …
“Salvation, A Free Gift”
Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan Nickerson – November 24th, 2020
(2 Timothy 2:13)…..If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.
I have walked with God for over many years, as maybe you have also. And together we can say, “It has not been easy.” But we as Christians can all say from experience, that God is faithful! Oh, We have failed Him many times, but He has never failed us! God has always taken care of us in every way that could be imagined. He has stuck with us through all kinds of things, always comforting us …

When its waves rise, You still them. 10 You have broken Rahab in pieces, as one who is slain;

How Can We Know?
Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan Nickerson – November 20th, 2020
Does the Bible teach that we can know we are going to heaven? If so, what passage can be quoted to prove we can know? We may not be able to know we are going to heaven, but we can know we have eternal life (1 John 5:13).
The purpose of what John wrote, was so we can “know” we have eternal life. Our knowledge that we have eternal life is not based on emotions, a special testimony of the Holy Spirit, or an inner feeling. We can “know” based …
The Church – His Body
