What benefit will I get from salvation?



You will be rich over night.  Not financially, but spiritually.  You will discover that you are a child of God, most precious to Him. If He has given His beloved Son to die on the cross for you surely you must realize you are of great worth to Him.  Life on this Earth will probably get harder for you, but in all your trials the Lord will be with you by his Spirit.  In the book of James chapter 1 we read about the trials that will come our way, but they are designed to make us stronger.  But there is not just this life to consider, heaven awaits God’s children.  We know very little about heaven, but we do know that God will be there and His children will be in perfect fellowship with Him.  Imagine that, the Almighty, Holy God finding pleasure in being with the likes of us. We will be in fellowship with God in a far better way than Adam and Eve experienced because we will understand the magnitude of God’s love for us in sending Jesus to die for us."Ask and it will be given unto you,seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you."

Life after death

When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.

Constructive criticism

First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.

Section A

I've posted off my work for section A. Now to get on with B. Onward and upward as they say. It does feel good to have completed A, progress is being made.I think my tutor is more nervous than I as to the outcome, but then I am his first student. We are learning from each other.But then that should always be the case. It's an adventure we go on together.The course seems to be suiting me alright but I feel there are a lot of potentially excellent local preachers out there who are put off by the study. Something should be devised to include these good people, we can ill afford to do without them, especially as the numbers of ministers is dropping. What did Wesley do? You don't need a degree, or even A levels to preach. You need a call, and a close relationship with God.
