hour before sunset to win
them”

The Church is God’s Queen
Will she say “YES!” to her calling? Will she display her beauty for all
to see? Will she command Respect?
Jesus and the Samaritan Woman
When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?”
He has What You Have
Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”
Eternally Satisfying Drink
Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst”
Meanwhile his disciples urged him, “Rabbi, eat something.”
But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing
about.”
“My food,” said Jesus, “is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work.”
Visit to Jericho - Zacchaeus
A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax
collector and was wealthy. He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the
crowd.
Who Blesses Whom ?
“He (Jesus) has gone to be the guest of a
sinner.” – (Zacchaeus)
Who is the Watchman?
‘When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him their watchman…
Sound the Alarm
He (The Watchman) blows the trumpet to warn the people, then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not heed the warning and the sword comes and takes their life, their blood will be on their own head.
As Long as we do His Will -
I have made you a watchman for the people …
But if you do warn the wicked person to turn from their ways and they do not do so, they will die
for their sin, though you yourself will be saved.
Message of Love
Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you
have loved me.
