    might study over the break!

    Giving Update
    THE MINISTRY OF SALEM HEIGHTS CHURCH
    The ministry of Salem Heights Church is funded entirely by the
    generous giving of Gods people. You will notice that we do not
    pass the offering plate; however, there are offering boxes in the
    back of the auditorium. We have done this so no one gives out
    of compulsion. We believe from the Word of God that the Spirit
    of God will lead people towards giving back to God of their first
    fruits. ...God loves a cheerful giver (2 Cor. 9:7) and we know
    He blesses those who take His Word seriously in every regard.
    Thank you for prayerfully supporting Salem Heights financially as
    we desire to reach the lost and disciple the Saints.

    NEW YEARS REST


    Hebrews 4:1-16

    Presented by
    Pastor Matt MacCollin
    January 4, 2015

    Happy New Year! Welcome to 2015. How was 2014? Was it


    a peaceful, restful year? As we think about it, some of us
    might affirm, yes it was peaceful. But for many of us, well
    we are not sure true peace is even possible.
    Two artists were once commissioned to paint a picture of
    peace. The first drew his perception of what peace would
    look like. He painted an ocean, still as a pond, mirroring in
    its depths every line and curve of a sailboat floating quietly
    by. Overhead the sky was blue, flecked with light fluffy
    clouds. And on the shore, children played in the shallows
    and made castles in the sand. From his creative mind, that
    is what peace would look like. The second artists picture, I
    believe, was nearer to the truth. He depicted an ocean
    scene of surf, pounding and bursting into towering clouds of
    spray. The sky was black with the storm, and the surging
    waves tossed and heaved. But far up on a rocky crag,
    hidden in the cleft of a rock and sheltered from the wind,
    sat a bird, safe and secure in her nest, looking out with a
    serene and untroubled eye at all the turmoil beneath...

    There are 361 days left of 2015 and God offers us His rest.
    Lets look into His perfect Word and see that there is good
    news, we can have perfect rest in Jesus today.
    Mankinds Pattern

    Is seen throughout Scripture


    Israel in the desert reveals our negative pattern:
    A savior Moses was sent by God...

    They believed and were set free from Egypts


    bondage...

    Then they doubted Gods Word...

    Then they became anxious...

    Then they rebelled, resulting in no rest.

    Gods Persuasion Against Our Pride

    Jesus is the true Savior sent by God.


    We believe and are set free from sins bondage.

    We must not doubt as they did.

    Our rest depends on His Word being true in our life.

    Our rest depends on His power, not our abilities.

    Our Surrender, Jesus Christs Power

    Jesus now, today, is our Great High Priest.


    His Word reveals our heart and mind.

    We must come to our senses in the midst of fight or


    flight.

    Be diligent to surrender.

    Confidently coming to His throne will bring rest.

    NEW YEARS REST QUEST


    Will

    you commit to diligently surrender moment by


    moment, running to His throne?
