“Bruised For Our Iniquities”
As we study the Old Testament, let us never forget that it is all about Jesus!

Sometimes we hear people say, “If I had lived during the time of Christ, I would have believed!”
Let’s not be like the one-talent man who went and buried his talent in the ground.
While there are some things that we want to do that we haven’t been doing, we need to continue to do some good things that we have been doing too!
Doing right may not feel right at first, but restrained behavior can lead to virtuous behavior (2 Peter 1:3-11). Put away pride and you will feel right about doing right.
Satan had nothing on Jesus because He was without sin (John 14:30). If you are in Christ, Satan has nothing on you either, because he had nothing on Him.
Jesus learned obedience and became the author of salvation to all who obey Him (Hebrews 5:8-9). Pride keeps us from obeying; remove it and obedience becomes joyful.
God gave us Jesus so we can identify with Him and become a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). Put on Christ in baptism and become what God intended you to be.
All will stand before God on the Day of Judgment (2 Corinthians 5:10). Jesus is the judge and His word is the standard, so learn Christ's words (John 12:48).
Looking back on a great first year at New Boston with a growing web site and two gospel meetings. Use the suggestion box to help make year two even better.
Like the prophets said, many hate good and love evil (Amos 5:15). Christians must oppose what is wrong and support what is right, knowing God remembers our good works.
Our gospel meeting and marriage seminar with brother Mike Price begins October 2nd, with lessons on love, the cycle of disaffection, and hope in Christ.
Jesus came not to be served, but to serve (Mark 10:45). Pride is the biggest obstacle to being a servant. Are we willing to kill our pride and serve?
Why attend our marriage seminar? The Bible will be taught, we need to know God's counsel on marriage, and your presence encourages others (Hebrews 10:24-25).
Jesus said to preach the gospel to every creature (Mark 16:15). Through the Internet, our web site reached visitors from 47 countries in August.
Learning to Serve, a marriage seminar, Bible Bowl, and our online study are some of the good works at New Boston. Will you pray, volunteer, and give to support them?
As our children go back to school, we should also be buying the truth (Proverbs 23:23) and bringing a good attitude without complaining (Philippians 2:14).
Bible study is important because God's people are destroyed for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). We must hear, study, and learn God's word to please Him.
