summer school question of the week

This year's Classroom College will meet Mon-Wed-Fri in my room

ATTENTION ALL CHRISTIAN LEADERS:
Last year's lunchtime study will continue, but this year we will have an specific study to kick off the new school year. We will start with a study of Christian leadership as we find in Matthew chapter 11. We will first use John MacArthur's study on True Greatness.
Bring a friend if you wish, but remember - like last year - that this is not a social time. This is not an excuse to get out of the cafeteria crowd. If you wish to come in, then you agree to be part of the Bible study.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
"HOW CAN I BE SURE THAT I AM A CHRISTIAN?"
This question has come up from a number of students asking about the way a person can know that they are a Believer - in other words, "I may have made a decision for Christ, but I see some Scriptures talking about thinking you are a Christian but finding out that Christ says you are not (Matthew 7:21-23 click here), so how can I be sure I am not living in a false hope?"
Here are some great links that help out our study.

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS ABOUT THE MILLENNIUM
ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS ABOUT THE MILLENNIUM
facts about the Millennium:
A study in the book of Revelation
1. The believers who live through the Tribulation will be mortal. They will live and repopulate the earth during the Millennial Kingdom.
2. At the end of the Millennial Reign, Satan is loosed and is able to deceive a vast multitude to follow him in one final rebellion against the Lord of glory and the Christians.
3. The final rebellion of Satan and sinful man will be over in a judgment of fire.
4. Isaiah 14 explains Satan's (Lucifer's) fall.
5. Will people die during the Millennium? Gotquestions.com: "There may be another resurrection at the end of the Millennium, one which is implied, but never explicitly stated in Scripture. It is possible that some believers will die a physical death during the Millennium. Through the prophet Isaiah, God said, "No longer will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not live out his days; for the youth will die at the age of one hundred and the one who does not reach the age of one hundred will be thought accursed” (Isaiah 65:20).
6. On the other hand, it is also possible that death in the Millennium will only come to the disobedient. In either event, some kind of transformation will be required to fit believers in their natural bodies in the Millennium for pristine existence throughout eternity. Each believer will need to have a “resurrected” type of body.

Look out, we're big and hairy
Most find us awful scary
Fear us, the Woolly Mammoths. Rah! Rah! and Rah!
All tremble at our coming,
Most start right into running
Fear us, the Woolly Mammoths. Rah! Rah! and Rah!
Though we can't win a game
We're rugged just the same
Chastise all those fools who dare to call us foes,
Cheer for the black and gray
We'll win a game some day
Fear us, the Woolly Mammoths. Rah! Rah! and Rah!
