Lake Chapala Baptist
“You don’t you don’t know where you’re going until you know where you’re coming from.” This is how Pastor John began his journey into Romans last Sunday. “504 years ago, an event occurred in church history that changed the church and the world forever,” he went on.
“Paul makes it clear in Romans that he is unashamed of the gospel because it is the saving power of God. Seize the gospel!” Pastor John said, echoing the fervor of Paul. “No worldly power can save souls, but the gospel can. I am unashamed of the Gospel, unashamed!”
Do we have such certainty within us? Have you experienced the power of the Gospel unto salvation? Can you stand before God in faith of your Lord’s righteousness? “CARPE AETERNAM, SEIZE ETERNITY!”
A joy-filled eternity in God is within grasp for each of us. When we seize the gospel unreservedly, we will have joy forever.Share thoughtful weekly sermons, uplifting music, God-driven fellowship, and an ongoing thirst for true wisdom at Lake Chapala Baptist Church every Sunday, 10:45 a.m. Adult Sunday school 9:45 a.m., and Bible study groups Tuesdays, 10:30 a.m. Santa Margarita 147, Riberas del Pilar.

Abundant Life Church
Do people today say it is better to feel good about a subject or to understand it? If we were honest with ourselves, the average person prefers to feel good and our feelings dictate what we understand. The student who doesn´t like math feels that they can´t understand it. Although this is normal, there is one place where we can’t afford to have our feelings cloud our understanding: the Bible. Regardless of how we feel, the Bible is true and we need to understand it. Come this Sunday, October 17, as pastor Gary challenges us to find our joy in understanding and then obeying what God says.
English Sunday service is at 10 a.m., also at abundantlifechapala.com. Return to bible studies in person Wednesday, October 20, 11 a.m. Carretera Chapala-Joco 140 in San Antonio Tlayacapan, a block from SuperLake market.
