BTLN UPDATE




Congrats Luke! This was Luke's second Helmet of the Btln Season! The final two were Luke and Deshawn. Neither made it all the way to the wall on the final round of Bulldog, but Luke made it further across the gym than Deshawn, winning the Helmet and the Yorkie!

This week we played Lukas Boschmann's favourite, the Btln Trifecta! The first leg of the Trifecta was Murderball. My team easily won Murderball winning all three games. The second game of the Trifecta was Handball. Handball was more evenly matched. Ben's team had and early lead, that my team was able to overcome, winning 7-6. Even though my team had already won the Trifecta we went to the third game, Fire-Fever-Flood. The last man standing for FFF was Mike, giving my team the clean sweep, 3-0!


In Bible study, the topic that Ben chose was, "Do you know where you are going after you die?"

John 14:6   Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

1 Timothy 2:5-6a   For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people.

Romans 10:9-10   If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.


Ben made it clear, that if we wanted eternal life in heaven with God, that Jesus was the only way!

The question is, what happens to those that don't declare that Jesus is Lord?


Matthew 25:41   “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.

Matthew 25:46   “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.

Revelation 21:8    But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”


If God had not provided a way out for us, we would all be destined for eternal punishment and death!


1 Corinthians 15:57   But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Romans 6:17   But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance.

2 Corinthians 2:14   But thanks be to God, who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma of the knowledge of him everywhere.



THE CAPTAIN
