The Race of Our Lives
Presentation at Three Crosses Community Centre
Saturday 19th May, 10am - 11am
The “greatest show on earth” is just around the corner, and around the world thousands of athletes are hard at work getting themselves in peak condition for their big moment. Some will face disappointment, for others dreams will come true, but for us watching it is sure to be entertaining.
Most of us aren’t athletes, but we all have our own goals and ambitions. In the Bible we read in a letter written to the Corinthians about a prize that is truly worth competing for.
“Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it. And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.”
1 Corinthians 9v24,25
The “imperishable crown” spoken of in this passage is no less than eternal life in God’s kingdom , it’s true - we can live forever. We have a choice as to which finishing line to aim for – death … or the imperishable crown of eternal life.
To find out more please come along to the presentation at Three Crosses. Everything is entirely free and you will be under no obligation, our only aim is to share this good news that is to be found in the Bible.

The Bible Said it First . . . ! |
|
 The King James Version (KJV) is one of the first English translations of the Bible. It has left a lasting impression on our society and was the origin of many phrases which are in common usage today.
You may use the phrases "wit's end", "multitude of sins", "labour of love", "an eye for an eye", or "strength to strength" - did you know these are all taken directly from the pages of the KJV? Entirely new words were invented specifically for the Bible - including the word "beautiful".
Today we have a vast array of different versions of the Bible which make use of more modern English rather than the Shakespearean language of 1611. These include the New King James Version and the English Standard Version. |

A Christadelphian’s confession of faith |
|
 If you asked a Christadelphian what he or she believed, this is the type of answer you might receive: "My faith is not just a set of Bible doctrines which I believe in theory. It is a faith to be lived as I try to follow the Lord Jesus day by day, and try to be like him. My greatest desire is for the Lord Jesus to return to earth so that I might glorify God, with Jesus, in his everlasting, worldwide kingdom here on earth!"
