Romans 247: Romans 8 - Welcome Nick TsontakisWelcome To BARAH MINISTRIES a Christian Church Rory Clark Pastor-Teacher
Good Morning!
We welcome you to Barah Ministries…a Christian Church, which through the miracle of the omnipotence of God and the blessing of the internet, has a worldwide reach with worldwide impact on lives…we are based in Mesa, AZ…and my name is Pastor Rory Clark.
SESSION INTRODUCTION Welcome Nick Tsontakis
In the second lesson, we get to dream. We welcome our architect, Nick Tsontakis, who is going to show us the renderings of our new church building.
We don’t have the money to build the facility yet, but we will. Romans, Chapter 8, Verses 24 and 25…
ROM 8:24 For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees?
ROM 8:25 But if we hope for what we do not see, with perseverance we wait eagerly for it.
We certainly hope for what we do not see…and we absolutely know that the Lord is interested in giving us the desires of our heart. Welcome to a place where the Word of God gives us hope.

OPENING PRAYER Let us pray...
We’re grateful, Heavenly Father, for the privilege of being in a relationship with You…
Father there are so many times and so many ways in Your Word that You promise us things we can’t even imagine…thank you for giving us hope…
…and while we can’t see right now where the money will come from to build a facility on the land You provided us with, we know that You have already set these funds aside, and You will reveal them to us when the time is right…
Thanks for providing Nick Tsontakis to guide us through this project…and thanks for providing a congregation with a core of individuals who will be warm and welcoming to those who join us in this endeavor as it gets underway…open our eyes to the blessings you surround us with…
We ask this through the power of God the Holy Spirit in Christ’s name... Amen.

SESSION INTRODUCTION Welcome Nick Tsontakis
When the Lord Jesus Christ Promises Salvation, It’s a Guarantee!
ROM 3:10 …as it is written, “There is none righteous, not even one”
ROM 5:8 But God the Father demonstrates His own unconditional love toward all mankind, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
JOH 3:17 For God the Father did not send the Son (the Lord Jesus Christ) into the world to condemn the world, but the Father sent His Son into the world that the world might be saved through believing in Him.
JOH 1:12 But as many as received the Lord (taking advantage of the free gift of salvation), to them He gave the right (once and for all time) to become children of God…to those who believe in Christ’s name…
