Brothers & Sisters in Christ,

I want to personally welcome you to Truth In Life Ministries International.  We are so pleased to be able to share with you through this Ministry, and to show you what God is doing here, and has in-store for you.

Our services are held Sunday at 12:30 pm here at Truth In Life Church. We also gather every Tuesday evening at 6:30pm for prayer and Bible study.

We have some exciting news to share, as we are a fellow-shipping part of Praise Chapel and will soon have a link to them. Also Pastor Tom has just put out his new book, THE TIMES OF THE END. We praise God for ALL the opportunities that he has given us to witness HIS Name and Glory. We trust this site will also be a blessing to you as well. Here is the message for June 2010.  

  

                   

TOP MEN

Fathers:                                                                                          1 John 2:1&2, 12-14

It is not customary to advertise for fathers. If society did such a thing, it would seek only TOP MEN. Fathers are not just men who have children but men in which God entrust a holy role: to bring up the next generation in the spirit and desires of God. First of all fathers do not stand alone. They can not replace mothers; however some fathers must be mothers to their children as well, just as some mothers need to be the father role also, and this is only because of divorce or death of a parent. It is the design of God for both mothers and fathers. However, it is intended that they each have their own role, while blending their gifts that the family knows not only unity but similar aims that come from common hopes. Nevertheless, if we were to advertise, we would all insist on only top men (men only) for the role of fathers for the world’s children. This dose not mean that they need to have means or good looks or be gifted leaders. These top men this world needs are not human gods but God’s humans – those who know Him and are open to His will. Top men are those who fall to their knees in prayer & rise to acclaim the Risen Christ by faith. Top men have seen the bottom’s failings & Yearn for the heights of joy for their families. Top men are sinners saved grace, who are not perfect but strive to be the best they can be for God, their wives, children & themselves, these men are committed to God. Fathers who succeed implant in their children a love for Christ and His Church. These top men have given their son & daughters the Eternal Father as the family’s supreme head. You have given them life forever. Further more Fathers are not excused from encouraging their little ones in faith and thereby helping them meet the demands of life and the world. Many of the nations we come from have been strengthened by the commitment of simple families to the truth of Scripture and the Joy of Jesus. It takes many families of faith to build a strong nation for God. It is not important what type of work fathers and children do, but the importance is who they serve as that affects what they do and how they live, and that affects the whole nation and the entire world. It is your family, my family, and other families like us that must pass on THE GOOD NEWS OF CHRIST GOSPEL to all the generations ahead. It requires top men to handle this top role of spiritual nurturer to the offspring of our nation. In closing remember before you know it they’ll be gone, but what legacy will they take with them? Your kids are like mirrors and reflect what they see. It’s hard for them to see God as their heavenly Father unless He’s clearly visible in their earthly father. So “Take them by the hand …lead them in the way of the Master.” If you don’t – Who will? Dads its our job to bring our children to the alter before our lord. Let us on this Fathers Day, consider the whole realm of the Christian family. Let us come to the altar to be nurtured, so we may return to ensure that this generation and all those ahead will have something more than materialism to live for or sports titles to claim. Let us show that life is full and purposeful, ensured by the cross and encouraged by Christ. Let us today give the gift of our Heavenly Father.
