New Year

"The time has come," he said.

"The kingdom of God is near.

Repent and believe the good news!"

As Jesus walked beside

the Sea of Galilee, he saw

Simon and his brother Andrew

casting a net into the lake,

for they were fishermen.

"Come, follow me," Jesus said,

"and I will make you fishers of men."

At once they left their nets and

followed him. Mark 1:15-18

​

"The time has come," is

used at important times in

the Bible.

One can spend time or fill it.

Time is life.

No time, no life.

On our village field and flower

garden there are crops and flowers

respectively as time comes; of

course when good seeds were sown.

I wish all the good seeds you have

sown this year are fruitful at the

end of the this year now.

If fruit are little short of your

expectations, I would like to

congratulate the hope you have to

sow more good seeds in New Year.

May you have a hopeful

New Year of sowing much and

harvesting much,

a New Year that you help

many people to return

the Lord Jesus.

May you be filled with

thanksgiving and be healthy

in the blessing of God

in New Year!

The first promise of the first Christmas

is God to become a Man to crush

the head of the devil.

In the next 4000 years several hundred

times God told them what

the First Christmas would be like.

He proclaimed through the prophets

what the first Christmas would be

like to the people who die eternally

because of their sin.

Only 2000 years ago all his promise

was fulfilled without a single failure.

The savior Jesus was born in a manger.

The first Christmas! Worship the Messiah!

The first advent was fulfilled on

the first Christmas.

Now the mankind is entered in

the second advent as

the Savior Jesus himself promised.

Congratulations to all who wait in a great

hope of Jesus coming again as

King of kings, Lord of lords.

Merry Christmas to you!
