God Made the World and Me

      The onslaught against our children is amazing. Every year, on tv, in school, in the news, the crowd of atheists exert more and more pressure. They want people to believe there is no God. They tell us the universe, the world and everything in them got here by accident.

      However, we know that is just not so. God is and God rewards those who seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).

      We cannot look at the world around us and believe it got here on its own any more than we can look at the watches we are wearing and believe they got here on their own. Our universe screams design and we worship the Grand Designer. “Every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God,” (Hebrews 3:4, ESV).

      As such, we have chosen to let our Vacation Bible School be the means by which we pass on a defense to our children. We want them to know God is and He created the world. Therefore, tomorrow we are going to start our Vacation Bible School and you are invited.

      We will be having classes for all ages, including adults. Our adult class will be taught by Colly Caldwell. Our children’s classes will be taught by caring and active members of our congregation. Each teacher is dedicated to helping our children learn about God. Unlike other Vacation Bible Schools that you hear about, ours is focused on learning. The Franklin Church of Christ is a teaching institution, upholding the truth from God (I Timothy 3:15), therefore we will not major in recreation and entertainment, but in providing our children with the learning they need to combat the debilitating doctrines of the devil.

      It will be an exciting time. On Monday night we will learn that God is, noting some simple evidences that show the existence of God. On Tuesday night, we will learn that God created the universe. We will see evidences from scientific law and from the design of the universe to show that none of this happened on accident but God designed it all. On Wednesday night, we will learn that God created the world. We will see evidences from geology and the fossil record that uphold the message of the Bible. On Thursday night, we will learn that God made me. Each of us is indeed a wonderful creation from God. It baffles our minds that people can look at the human body and think it got here through some happy accident.

      This is going to be a jam-packed week with learning for the whole family. We hope you can be here each night at 7 pm. We want your children to know that God made the world and God made us.

      See you there.
