Chew on the scriptures from the Easter message on Finding Forgiveness!

You can watch the message here.

Acts 2
38 Peter replied, “Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Colossians 2
13 You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. 14 He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. 15 In this way, he disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross.

1 John 4
9 God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. 10 This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.

Are you ‘FINE’ or FORGIVEN?

‘FINE’: managing my difficult circumstances toward eventually finding happiness

Psalm 103
12 He has removed our sins as far from us
as the east is from the west.
13 The Lord is like a father to his children,
tender and compassionate

Romans 4
7 “Oh, what joy for those whose disobedience is forgiven,whose sins are put out of sight.

Romans 8
38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

This Easter will be a powerful celebration! The music will be loud, groovy, inspirational and creative. It will lead you to raise your voice, clap your hands and maybe even stomp your feet. This is gonna be a blast!

Here’s what you can do to celebrate:

Get there early and get your seat.
Bring it! When the music starts…break out in applause and get the party started.
Sing out! Sing at the top of your lungs and worship with all your heart. Don’t worry, even if you can’t sing, we’ll have the music rockin’ so that those around you can’t really tell.
Clap! Get into the music by clapping and honor God by praising Him with applause!

Remember…it is all about worshipping our God. He is the object of our affection and passion.

Come ready to celebrate!

God is going to do something incredible this Easter! We are expecting huge crowds and many new faces to Keystone. For many people, this is the one shot that they give Jesus each year. We are fired up about Easter at Keystone Church.

We anticipate the 9:30am and 11:00am services to be the popular choice of our guests. So we are asking all members and regular attenders to attend one of the other four services to make room for our guests in the 9:30am and 11:00am services. It is our heart that we never have to turn anyone away from experiencing a passionate life in Christ. We need our members and regular attenders to lead out in our vision by creating seats for the peeps! The four service times that we are asking members and regular attenders to attend are Saturday at 4:30pm, 6:30pm and Sunday at 8:00am & 12:45pm.

BAPTISM this EASTER

EASTER is a perfect time for Baptism! Baptism is a beautiful thing. It is a wonderful picture of life-change, an outward expression of the amazing things that God is doing on the inside of you. At Keystone Church, we like to refer to it as the ultimate slam dunk!

Jesus led by example when he was baptized. We would love the opportunity to share in this very special expression of your faith in Jesus. If you are at a place where you would like to be baptized this Easter or would just like to talk further about baptism, please contact us by calling the church office at 817-431-8800 or email jody@keystonechurch.com.

INVITE this EASTER

This Easter we challenge you to invite, invite, invite! Invite your friends, family, neighbors, co-workers and anyone who you meet. God continually uses these simple invitations in amazing ways where people come and find a new life in Jesus. An invitation could save a marriage, heal a broken heart, give someone hope, or shatter an addiction. You just never know. The Easter services are going to be powerful and creative. We will be sharing the free gift of forgiveness that is available through a relationship with Jesus in a simple, straighforward way. This will be the perfect weekend to bring “everyone”.

This Easter we are not sending a mailer. This Easter, YOU ARE THE INVITATION! We are providing “invite cards” the three weekends prior to Easter (March 13/14, 20/21, 27/28) to help you invite your friends, family, neighbors, co-workers and community. We know that you are up to the challenge of actively taking forward the vision of leading everyone to experience a passionate life in Christ!

HOW THE INVITE CARDS WORK

Take several invite cards.
Find creative ways to invite the community utlizing the invite cards..leave them with your receipt at the resteraunt, put them on cars, hand them out, or whatever fun way you come up with.
Pray for the person you are going to give the invite card to. You don’t have to know them, just pray for them.
Invite the person to Keystone by handing them the invite card.

Here’s an example of using the invite card:

Say you are shopping at your local grocery store. When you arrive or before you leave, pray for the people who own the cars on each side of your car. Ask God to bless them and that they would come to the Easter services at Keystone. Then place the INVITE CARD on the driver’s window right above the door handle with the “I Prayed for You” side facing them.

Inviting your community to church is a practical and effective way of sharing God’s love.

SERVE this EASTER

This Easter is going to be AMAZING! We anticipate large crowds…more than have ever been to Keystone on a weekend. That means more people will be hearing about God’s life-changing love on that weekend than ever before in the history of Keystone Church. That pumps us up!

Our passion is for Easter weekend to be an excellent experience, like every weekend at Keystone, for all the new faces that choose to attend on Easter. This can only happen with amazing volunteers.

We need your help to make this happen! We are asking you to make a small sacrifice and SERVE, SERVE , SERVE! “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - Mark 10:45

Here’s the challenge for volunteering this Easter: Serve in two of our six services this Easter.

We are asking all current volunteers to step up. Those of you who have never served, we have a place for you as well. On the weekends of March 6/7 and March 13/14, we will provide all the details on how you can serve.

If you are interested in serving, email jody@keystonechurch.com or call the church office at 817-431-8800.
