BTLN UPDATE



Congrats Noah! This was Noah's first Helmet of the Btln Season! Tyson was there at the end looking for his second Helmet of the year, but Noah out gained him on the last round to take the win! GO Blue Jays!

This week we played the Btln Trifecta for the first time this year! Actually, we played the Btln Quadfecta! I know, Quadfecta doesn't sound as good as Trifecta. I guess we will just call it The Quad. The Trifecta usually includes three of the following, Murderball, Handball, Extreme Bulldog and Fire-Fever-Flood. This week we played all four! Dan's team was able to win Murderball, Handball and Extreme Bulldog. My team was only able to take Fire-Fever-Flood. My team had speed and Dan's team had size. Size over speed this week!

In Bible study this week our topic was Faith. The next three Bible studies will be Faith, Hope and Love.

Hebrews 11:6   And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

Faith is required to please God, because faith is simply believing that God exists and trusting in him for your salvation. 

Hebrews 11:1   Now faith is confidence in what we hope for (being in heaven with Jesus) and assurance about what we do not see. (God, heaven)

2 Corinthians 5:7   For we live by faith, not by sight.

We cannot see God or heaven. We must believe that they exist! We have to trust that God's promises in the Bible are true!

Hebrews 12:2b   Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith.

Jesus is the one that will give us the faith that we need!

Romans 10:17   Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.

God will grow our faith as we study his word!

Ephesians 6:16   In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

Finally, we can use faith to defend ourselves from the evil one! 


Next week is Royal Rumble 11! Make sure that you are early! October 28th at 6:45 p.m.
